- You're not going to believe how this one ends. I do an oil change on my mower and what comes out is not good. The manual states that the oil should be changed after the first 8 hours. I'm not a mathematician but I believe 300 is just a little bit longer than 8. Here ya go, hope you enjoy.

You should put some new oil in it and change it again after a few hours when it's warm to get all the rest of the thick old oil out.
That's not a bad idea. Thanks for the advice.
You were only 292 hours overdue. Lol
Dude said never did oil change and it's 300 hours. Oh lord
I have an older Dixon, bought new in 2009, I've never changed the oil, only add a little when she get low. Briggs engine! Mowers are THE most abused equipment on planet earth! You've inspired me to change the oil in my Dixon.
I have a brand new Maverick HD with the Honda engine, I can only hope it last as long as my Dixon!
You crack me up bro, I was literally laughing out loud. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words. Definitely don't do as I do. I'm an idiot. Lol. But, yes mowers are abused on a daily basis. Thank goodness the people who build them know people like us will be buying them. We take them for granted and they very seldom let us down. To bad kids these days can't be more like mowers.
: )
My wife asked me why I don't buy a used mower.... this is exactly why!
One owner, never abused, clean service records no low balls I know what I got here.
But seriously I've had my rebel with the kawi, for two years now and like 200 hrs. I've bush hogged 5 acres of neglected junked horse field. I've found t post, rocks fence wire, foundations and probably enough car parts to build a complete mustang. The rear coil spring had to be the most interesting ordeal, two blades flew off. One my 5th set of blades this year alone. After seeing your video, it reminded me I forgot to do my first service. I have put this mower to the absolute worst conditions period and she's a champ, starts every time and don't miss a beat. Bad boy mowers are legit.
Love it. You and i are molded from the same piece of clay my friend. It kills me to hear about people who buy these things just to be like Hank Hill. I bought mine for exactly the same reason you did. I kick her ass everyday. I run her through the roughest shit possible. She gets beat up and knocked around constantly. On my property shes been stuck, high centered on stumps, wedged between trees and slid down my mountain. Shes been in 110 degree weather and -10 degree weather. Shes been rained on, snowed on, hailed on and ever survived a tornado. And after all that she still just sits there patiently waiting for the next time that she gets to go out in the yard and eat. If i could only get my wife to be more like my mower. Lol. Thanks for watching and commenting. I love hearing stories like yours.
Well my friend, you have earned a subscriber and a like for your skills of being a man. Stay classy and continue the good fight
@@ronniegray437 Thank you. I really appreciate it.
You keep not changing the oil and running low oil it won't run long.
I feel like I was dang close to locking her up before this oil change. She's been running like a champ for me the past six years. I definitely couldn't have gone another season.
Absolutely right.
It's a Kohler, it doesn't deserve an oil change. I have had nothing but troubles with every single Kohler I've ever owned. Even the new EFI engines, one of the EFI engines would just start sputtering and surging about once every hour and almost dies. Of course warranty was worthless since no one could figure it out, ended up finding it had a bad O2 sensor from the factory. And then all the command pros I had all started to use so much oil before the 500 hour mark they wouldn't even start without a new spark plug. Went to Honda and Kawasaki, been great. One of my 690 Honda's has 3500 hours on it and no troubles yet.
They are some things you don't brag about. And not changing your engine oil is one of them.
Kohler makes a great engine. That motor is made to run 1800 hrs. The biggest thing with engines is Keeping a clean air filter so they don't get dusted out. We have a Maverick Bad Boy 54" and its very well built. Mostly Happy with the cut quality.
They've been around a long time for a reason. So if their made to run 1800 hrs that means I only have to change the oil 5 more times.
: )
Yes sir run the motor for short 5 mins and the oil will pour faster. The colder the oil the harder it is at pouring. Think of water and when it's cold think of syrup ? Lol also take dipstick out a little to vent
Great video dude! Very helpful. Pretty funny too.😂 Thanks for sharing.👍🏼
This made me laugh on many levels. 300 hours / 6 years. I’m impressed with that Kohler engine tho 😂.
Damn bro!
Yeah, she was a little over due. I used it today and she's running like a champ. Kohler motors are freakin awesome.
@@IttakesWill my I bought in about 2008, it has the Kawasaki and its been awesome too.
That stuff looked like chocolate cake batter..lol
I love my Bad Boy Zero-Turn, so glad I bought this brand. I want to buy another better one just because I like them so much.
Cold oil changes aren't the most effective the hotter the better unfortunately lol nice video though pretty entertaining 😆 I can't wait to get my 22 HD I say it on most bad boy videos lbvs
Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately I probably won't remember that in 6 years when I do the next oil change. Lol.
kohler 7000 engine manual pg 6.
“300-Hour oil and oil filter change intervals are exclusive to and only authorized on KOHLER engines that utilize both the KOHLER PRO 10W-50 Synthetic Oil and KOHLER PRO
Extended Life Oil Filter. Alternative engine oils and oil filters may be used with KOHLER engines but require 100-Hour oil and oil filter change intervals for proper maintenance.”
2 years ago...well, is it still runnin?
That’s awesome!! Same with my dads that has the Kawasaki that has been passed down to me since he passed away and it had 350 hours with original blades and oil. Just did the tune up and it runs so good..
Good to hear 👍
I used to work on mowers for a living. I remember being brought a mower with a broken rod. My powi
-in-law said looks like they never checked the oil.
That rod almost went through the block.
I got same mower glad I got it fixing on changin oil got 30 hrs on it
He actually called something Dumb..he had to be looking in to mirror
What you should have done was after you change the oil mow your grass like twice and then change the oil again to help get more sludge out of that motor
You should at least change the oil every 100 hours. I like to change mine every season. Which I don’t put 100 hours on mine. Also you might want to change the air filter. Good video!!
Thanks for watching. I had every intention of changing it when I was suppose to but I kept putting it off. I'm a bit of a procrastinator.
@@IttakesWill I think most men procrastinate brother. I know I do, lol
What about greasing, air filter, hydraulics?
Freakin hilarious. Was like listening to myself. Im getting ready for my first change too. Hopefully I wont blow it up or set the neighbors dog on fire in the process!
Ist oil change in 6 years, thats mower abuse
It doesn't even have oil in it from the factory, it's some other kind of substance.
How about the filter and hydaulic oil? Your one rough dude.
A little trick for changing oil.. Let engine run for a little bit, not too long, and oil will heat up and flow better…
Hey man, just checking in on the mower. Is it still running strong after riding it hard?
Well it's your mower and your money. Waste it however you want to. It's a testimate to how tough Bad Boy's are built. If you can't abuse it to death it should give years of service to a normal person.
If i was going to weight to 300 hours i would just never changed it. Just drain it out and run it until it locks up.
I have almost 5 years on m y Simplicity and just turned over 280 hours. I'm guessing you mow a few yards in your neighborhood too?
The top of my property (I live on a mountain) is around 30 acres. I don't mow the whole thing every time but I do mow about 10 acres of it once a week. I'll hit the whole 30 about once a month. The lower part of my property below the bluff is all woods. I have a video I made of the lower part of my property where I found a fossil at the creek. You should check it out.
@@IttakesWill Dang…that’s a lot of mowing. Living the dream!!
Is that Kohler 747cc engine EFI or carburetor?
You got to be kidding that engine abuse ! ! !
That “ahhhhh” expression was my impression of your unsurity of telling this story , it’s a horror for sure , from the black scary oil coating all of its internal metal . We witnessed it all , bravery to now keep us updated with up to date services , see if I’ll effects arise like the dead .
maybe your dipstick doesn't work lol. don't feel bad. my cub cadet is probably 10 years old at least. i think i will do my first oil add or change, today
You will ruin that engine by changing oil and a new filter. That's like the old boy back in the 60"s put a 100,000 miles on his car without ever greasing it. Someone told him that he had better grease it, so he did, and every joint on the car popped lose. He says that's it, I will never grease another one. lol
If it had a Kawasaki it would have locked up with no oil change in 300 hours. Kohler is the best engine hands down.
Shots fired on the ex 😅😅
Wow! What not to do! That.
She sounds terrible you abused her too much ..
Here that engine Clack.
Possible Rod knock..
There's no rod knocking. Your hearing an exhaust leak that I fixed right after I made this video. No smoke, no loss of power, no rough idle and no "clack". I've mowed with this thing several times this year. She purrs like a kitten and runs like a top. Hey, that should be Kohlers new slogan. I'm going to contact them right now. Thanks for watching the video and commenting, it really helps the channel out.
@@IttakesWill whatever you do, don't let this Henry guy work on your mower. lol 🤣🤣🤣
@@ericepperson8989 that's funny. Everybody thinks their and internet machanic.
If you dip your fingers in the drain oil and rub your fingers together and it feels gritty, that ain't good. Thanks
Can't believe you weighted 300 hours to change your oil.
First oil change should have been done at 5 hours to get the break in oil out. Then ever 50 hours.
Sad, to see such abuse of a fine machine its life has been shortened by 10 years or better, and will probably crap out(throw a rod) in the next year
your using the wrong motor oil 10w40 is not the correct oil, use 30w oil. So Sad
I dont know but your Ex wife makes dam good Lasagna you know little burnt around the edges !
What an abused engine.
...and she still runs like a champ. What an awesome engine.
Just really quick here, note to self NEVER to buy anything from you
LoL on the ex-wife cooking
How do you allow yourself to ruin a beautiful machine like that? Pure neglect….
Why would you make a video exposing your ignorance ????????????????????????????????
Why did you change the oil 🛢️.
Mite as well just add some dollar general oil and keep on going.
