Mower repairs

Victa Briggs & Stratton mulching mower will not start (bugger)

Since the last time I serviced the mower a few years ago it's been running well and now suddenly with no warnings - will not start? There are a couple of things creeping in lately, harder to prime and the recoil starter is dodgy - slack cord.

Removed the cover - the end of the throttle cable needs to be unhooked from the throttle arm.

We have a problem here but for now just want to get the mower running.

Sometimes the ratchet does not lock and I suspect one or both plastic pawls might be broken. I will add this to the job list.

Back soon...
