Ahhh, the man has eyes everywhere!

I bet you were like a little kid opening a Christmas gift, LOL.

Ya feel like a kid at Christmas, huh?

Probably would have been quicker if you drove to Florida and picked it up yourself, huh?

Ahhh, the good ol' USPS, they never let me down! It's a day to mark on your calendar when it's a timely delivery. And they wonder why so many people go with other delivery services. Hopefully you'll remember why you ordered it when it finally arrives.

I can agree with that. You apparently have a mail carrier with some personal ethics. I've seen items get lost, thrown on the porch, etc. And following a package that was sent from a location about an hour away, go right past your residence into another state, or following packages that sit at a postal facility for a week and not move, makes me wonder why things are not getting addressed. At least to me it's not very efficient. My fiancee watched a package go from Cleveland to Pittsburgh seven times before it was finally delivered.

If common sense was actually "common", everyone would have it. Clearly that is not the case. Some things in this world just don't make any sense, at least to me.

Have you ever tracked a package from start to finish? They are not at all efficient. I ordered a package from New Jersey, and tracked it through every post office in New Jersey, as well as several in New York and Pennsylvania, before finally arriving 3 days later than scheduled. I have seen packages go right by me here in Ohio, into Pennsylvania, and back to Ohio. They are extremely inefficient.

If you mean they were paid to NOT deliver the ballots, then they did a bangup job! But, they were able to deliver thousands of invalid ballots.

And they complain about their competition (UPS, FEDEX, etc.). Personally I prefer any delivery service to the USPS. Seems it's a rare occasion when something is actually delivered on time. And they claimed they were ready and able to deliver thousands of ballots. They showed just how good they are!

Well, that leaves me out of the picture.

I thought that was an issue. But there seems to be at least a few manufacturers who have designed this type of system. I believe I saw a Honda on the list while I was doing a search. I wonder if there is a way to retrofit a filter to the engine?

Lol, you're kinda hard on those poor Chinese folks. They are just trying to make a living 😉

This one has a spring with a screen, which comes out when you drop the drain plug. I see that there are other engines that use this type of filtration, such as some Honda engines. But my twin cylinder Briggs and Stratton engine uses a filter. Maybe it has something to do with the wet clutch? As long as it performs its job correctly, I can live with it. I just would think that a canister filter would do a better job.

I used Valvoline 10W40 for wet clutches. Does your Mule use a filter? Just curious about why the engine manufacturer used a screen with a spring. I guess I don't know how it works. I would like to understand how it functions to filter the oil.

Is it a quality oil? I wouldn't expect it to be so dark. I also don't understand why the engine manufacturer (Linhai) doesn't use a filter instead of the spring and screen. Took a 1/2 inch breaker bar and a 6 point socket to loosen it up.

Just finished up. Glad I did, too. There was a tiny amount of residue in the screen, but basically it was very clean. However, the oil was black, which kinda surprised me since the UTV only has 14.6 hours on it. I hope it's not a bad sign. This was a demonstrator model, so maybe that's why it looked so dark? I don't know what quality of oil is used by the manufacturer, either.

I did the survey a few days ago. The only info they wanted was my email address. Haven't heard anything ad of yet. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

Yeah, like toilet paper and hand sanitizer during the pandemic. I personally reported a few sellers on Ebay for gouging. They were removed almost immediately.

I can understand trying to make a profit, but that much of a profit is too much like price gouging.

So if you can get it for $25.00, and there is still a profit for the seller, then I would think that the dealers are price gouging.

I would be very interested in finding out what the cost of the gear was for the dealership, and then compare that to the retail cost. I bet we would be amazed!

I hope it holds up for you!

Ain't that ridiculous? Just think of the profit being made by the dealer.

Well, if you have the money, go for it. Glad you found the problem. That was the only problem, right?
