First let's start with it being cold out. Took the hour to an hour and half drive to the trails. Got there and me and my friend were the only ones. A few kids and their parents showed up about an hour later. Riding was fun till my friend went down the wrong side of the creek. He started to sink and gave it more gas. Was still moving till he started coming up out of the hole then a complete stop. Front end was in the shallow part of water but the rear end was in the water all the way up to the seat almost. High enough that he couldn't let the motor die cause he has his muffler under water. I back up in the water and yanked him out. His feet were soaked and it's cold so we ended the day.

On the way home though we had a tire go flat on the trailer. Let's not mention we have no spare and if we did we couldn't change it. The trailer is built wrong and the tire cant have air in it to get it in place to be bolted back on. Mobile trailer axle and the trailer frame was built around it. The wheel won't slide past the outer part of the frame and the axle.

Well friend took my truck and I stayed with the trailer while he went home to get his truck and car hauler, which my trailer barely fit on. He got a speeding ticket going home and a warning for loud exhaust on my truck. I had to wait almost two hours for him. Took another hour to get my trailer on his trailer.

I don't need any more bad luck for today.

      Honda 4514 Riding Lawnmower
      By Gwbarm
      Just aquired this Honda 4514. I had heard of them and seen them but had never really looked at one. Amazing machine from the 90s.
      It has a 14 HP inline 2 cylinder engine. A cute little fan like the old school cars had and a little radiator. It has a timing belt on the back of the engine running the cam and a water pump. Just like a miniature car engine with  electronic clutches to turn blades on and off. Pretty hight tech for the 90s not a small thing and built like a tank weighs in at 600 pds hydrostatic trans. I have found out that almost anything you have to do to it the engine has to come out starter timing belt water pump. Very expensive parts i think most got junked for that reason, i did find out they were built by John Deere except for the honda engine.
      Does anyone here have any expierience with these.

      2022 Honda Rubicon won’t start, need help
      By HondaRubi2022
      Hello,
      I have a 2022 Honda Rubicon and I have an issue where it won’t start, when I turn the key for power nothing lights up and it won’t start but the lights will turn on with the light switch, I’ve checked all fuses and they’re good, I don’t have a wiring schematic I’m not sure where to start, I checked the ignition fuse when I turn the key on and there’s no voltage there, I used a jumper wire from the batter to the top of the ignition fuse and then it works fine and starts fine but as soon as I turn the quad/key off it won’t start again until I jump the ignition fuse with battery power, just wondering if anyone could give me some tips where to go with this or if anyone has had the same issue, thank you.
