    Great video, my friend! I just changed the oil and cleaned the carb on my Greensmaster and this was very helpful.

    Dang bro! I was just servicing my reel this evening. I did not know the fuel filter was reverse threaded. So thanks. My ONLY recommendation is to make sure you check the spark plug gap, even tho it’s new, to make sure it’s within spec. Like I have said before, you are a lawn boss. Totally appreciate the tips you always pull out in an effort to OWN IT!

    Nice man! Nothing like some quality time servicing your machine! Great tip on the the spark plug gap, I find the bp4’s consist in there gapping but it’s always good to double check. I appreciate your support, I have a lot of content in store!

    Agreed on the spark plug gap, but I’d also add a dab of anti-seize on the steel threads since it’s going into an aluminum head. Other than that, thanks for the video!

    I think the highest the flex goes is like .3-.5 inches but you can buy the kit from r&r to make it go up to an inch. The GM in this video has a max height of a half in as well

    Only 9 zerks? Lucky! Mine is a later model and it has at least 13. I can’t even hit a few of them with the style of grease pump you’re using. I had to get one with like a needle tip just so it could fit into tight spaces. On a side note, have you ever taken the reel off? I would love to see how to do that.
