VM, pull the Kohler off and put it on a normal push mower base there is too much drag trying to push a self propelled that is not self propelled
BB is the dislike of the Diplomat because the drive gear is unobtainable or some other reason. I'm sure a fitter working in his shed could make a steel gear, even if it cost a bit, if that is the only killer of the Diplomat it might be worth the effort?
