No matter if it start without pre-heating. The 990 is built by Yanamr to JD's specs. It's beefier than a regular Yanmar of the same HP. Cutting the rops? Don't go there. Resale of the JD will top every other make of the same age & HP in the years to come. Around here the 5105 and 950 are pretty close in price. Get a M4WD or don't bother buying anything. I've found bush hogs not limited by power but by ground travel speed on how clean they will cut.
