In this second installment of the MTD Yard Man (Craftsman) 2 cylinder 18 hp garden tractor series, Matt continues where he left off and continues the much-needed tune-up that this old barn find tractor requires. Oil change, fuel line change and spark plug inspection are in store for the vintage opposed Briggs and Stratton.
Before taking the riding mower for a test cut, Matt notices a blown bearing that will require replacement. The old lawn mower is brought into the garage for the DIY repair. After removing the blades, it is noted that the bearings and shaft are completely DESTROYED!
