Don't feel too bad, mine went missing too back in November. Some guy's wooden post that was supporting a box like metal thing decided it was going to attack my truck one night. The post and metal thing definitely lost the fight, but it did manage to take my LP and holder. Only difference is mine was returned to me by some sheriff's deputies who were more thrilled to have it than I was. Its not even usable now anyways.

Yup, up and down doesn't work too well.

Did pretty good going sideways, might fit some old tires chains for it....

Pretty much. It's more fun doing that with a 45hp tractor on the side of a dam.
I did have the deck up, grass is/was thick, had to "bush hog" it before I could mow it....

Heck I'll do it for free if you want me to...

you guys seemed to miss the fact that they were built for the Mexican market. who needs more than 4 speeds in mexico let alone 4x4.

rjtx667 has a very nice 2000 ramcharger with a very bad @S$ 5.9 bolted to a built 46RE

@ dd: Already have an ATV here, just need a tow behind mower deck

Well today has been strange.

Got everything mowed, mower gave me a little trouble but eventually came back to life.

Problem is now, it's not getting fuel but it is....

Getting fuel to the carb bowl, enough to leak out a little, but it won't fire. We do have spark. And it will run with the gas into the air intake trick....

Could be needle be stuck? Or something else?

I had some problems earlier and I took the line off that goes into the carb bowl, unhooked the line going into the pump and out of the pump, and blew them all out. Didn't notice anything lodged. The carb bowl itself was pretty clean, no large debris, just small little specs of whatever....

We've got plenty of gas going into the fuel pump, took the pump off and it does seem to be working.

Arnold (seller) came down and looked, spend a good little while, but had to go, someone was at his house looking at something.

What's the best approach to checking for why fuel is bottle-necking in the bowl?

I'd be pulling the jet and needle to make sure they're not clogged. Make sure there are no other screens or anything in the carb that might be clogged up.
