5-20
- Epoxied left (from driver's perspective) headlight back on to hood, previous owner must've broken it
6-20
- Oil changed with Shell T4 10W-30 synthentic and filter from new holland dealership

Oil Filter Kawasaki 49065-0721
Spark plug: NGK BPR4ES
Deck belt: 141.5" x 1/2"
- I bought one at Menards for $34 in 2023 which was 141.7" x 1/2" and it seems to be working fine.

I just replaced a battery that had only been used for a few years (2018-2020). I never unhooked it and took it inside in the fall, but that would probably increase its life. I don't have that problem with the fourwheeler I think because I run it throughout the winter.
