@th19940305 normally they have mowers but iv found another place thats even better. He doesnt have complete mowers but he has heap of engines with carbies and mags.
@th19940305 I bought it at a scrap metal place for 5 bux. its not running at the moment but i think ill try try to get a better carby set up to make it run. Its amazing good when going.
i hate exhaust on my 2 strokes because they are very restrictive i drill holes in mine it increases power and you dont have to clean it as much and best of all increased power
I had the same problem with my chainsaw, mesh in exhaust was VERY blocked, idled ok but would not rev up so i just took it out. lucky i was doing work experience at a mower shop at the time.
nice, thanks for mentioning me. God i hate working on 2 strokes, 4 strokes are easier to work on, theres only a few things that can go wrong. No spark, check points, no fuel, check lines. There so simple. I got a new engine btw, an old villers engine, its about 50-60years old. I got it running, ill upload the vid soon.
When you go tommorrow can you make a video or take a picture of what he has i am just wondering.
