lol! This thing wants to GO!

Quit priming it with gasoline and buy yourself a can of starting fluid. It will start on the first pull.

[farmboy460]

@Suggythelump you should NOT use starting fluid it is for diesel engines not small gas engine they will blow up violently, and when it backfires it will go back up through the can and it will explode ... violently

I had the same mower but i scrapped it and kept the engine, which also needs a head gasket. i'm currently in the middle of restoring it

[trent730]

Yeah but how does she cut?

[Turbo231]

It cuts great...just too low for use around the house.

cool toy

[mattbenluke]

nice video

[Ajaces]

Very unique, how often do you use it?

[Turbo231]

It runs about every 2 weeks or so...I use it to clip the grass next to the driveway since it tends to mow really short, even on high.

[skizmog]

awesome!!!!

[Turbo231]

It's good...next video is moving the battery to a box behind the seat...better weight for the wheels and an upgrade to an automotive battery...with any luck. :)
