Mower repairs–part 6

After shopping went down to the mower shop and got a ‘odd’ wheel for $20 - yay.

Mower repairs–part 5

With the main repairs done gave the mower a good test run yesterday afternoon.
Nature strip, front yard, back yard - everything in sight that was green.
Importantly hot starts are good.

This morning we are having a look at the damaged wheel.

Mower repairs–part 4

VICTA 4 Stroke 19" STATESMAN 550 mulching mower – Start-up video clip.

The repairs went well with a satisfying DIY outcome and the parts cost $29 - happy with that.

Purchased in 2008 for $399 and has the larger Briggs & Stratton 5.5HP 4 Stroke Engine. Still a couple of things on the list, damaged wheel and that dodgy recoil starter.

Meadowbrook Mansion visitors–part 14

After successfully fitting himself into Pixie's basket this morning (see that post) he's back again tonight for a proper sleep session. This hound often sleeps with his eyes open, right now he's asleep in a dream with sound effects - lol

Mower repairs–part 3

Have to clean all that out plus wash parts with petrol which means I have to go get more stuff so wait till later when the rain eases off - down tools again.

As posted the old bulb is really soft when compared to the new one.

Mower repairs–part 2

Went down to the mower place to get the parts and when I got back, we had to quickly get the chooks sorted out before the rain came down - what a change. Went out to continue mower repairs but gave up for now with everything pulled back into the carport - away from the rain.

This parts cost $29 bucks - Crikey
