Also, with being between jobs/starting my own business right now, as well as needing to drop $4k into repairing the engine on my truck unexpectedly I'm a little short on commercial mower money, and I dont see much of point in said investment if I only need it for 2-3 years before buying a riding mower for acreage in the future.I use rotella t6 as well, as well as premium 100% gas. One of the issues is the self propelled bits are worn out, and while I haven't done a compression test, I am relatively sure my compression is going out. It has a hard time mowing anything, regardless of height after it gets warm. Constantly bogging down, the whole nine yards. Took it to a shadetree mechanic and a husqvarna dealer last year, had the carb rebuilt, parts replaced, everything serviced and stuff, but no change. I serviced it this year about a month ago, again no change. I may just buy a non propelled model, I feel like it would be more reliable and I could have a little more juice for mowing as opposed to making it easier for me.</blockquote>
