Why is one side of my riding mower deck on the ground and the other side up where it should be?

I know very little about repairs but if I know what to look for, I think I can get it fixed. It is Huskee LT4200 (2011?) lawn tractor. Over time, the left hand side of the deck has gradually started to sag. It is getting so bad now that I have to put the deck height at the highest setting and the left side still touches ground. Right side is up where it should be, but the left side is a disaster. I don't know if there is maybe a spring that got stretched out or a bolt that may be missing, or a bent bar... something. Any suggestions of what I should look for would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I think that you should remove the deck and look for a broken bracket or a missing retainer clip. Each brand of mower uses a different deck and lifting mech, so it is hard to say what your issue is without being able to see it. Look in your owner's manual for deck leveling procedure, as you go through the procedure you may come across the problem. Could be simple or something broken. Good luck.

Can a weak battery effect the way my engine idles and runs? It sounds bad after sound system was installed.?

I am not sure if the guy at Car Toys drilled into the gas tank or something else when he grounded out the system or if it is something else but I noticed a hissing sound coming from under my car as soon as I got to my friends house after the installation. I was freaking out for a bit and then it stopped only to come back after we got back from getting a bite to eat. I have a Hyundai Genesis 2011. We got out of the car to make sure the noise hadn't returned and sure enough it had. My car sounded more like a damn lawn mower rather than its normal purring sound. On top of that the hissing sound was almost as if there was air leaking out of something. We came to the conclusion that if it wasn't a hole in the gas tank, then it had to be the fuel line or something. We examined it and after awhile we turned the engine off for a few minutes. When we turned it back on the hissing noise was gone and the exhaust sounded better but the engine was clicking pretty hard only subtly however. It still has a factory battery in it.
It's a 700 watt mono block amp and I'm running one 12" subwoofer. I'm almost positive the battery is going low bc at one point I could run the ignition for 10 minutes at a time without the warning coming on and now even if I get in the car for 1 minute with the ignition on it gives me a warning telling me to start my engine. Another note: I was driving home tonight and I stomped on the accelerator a little bit to see if it had limited power and sure enough it seemed like it wasn't near as responsive and the exhaust sounded really bad. It didn't feel like the same car...

I would look for a loose vacuum line or maybe a disconnected sensor in the engine bay, he may have disconnected something when connecting power to the system and forgot to plug it back in.
