The only bad thing about lawn boys newer than 1975 is the coils always go bad all the time its annoying I had 8 spare coils from parts mowers they all had no spark

That's amazing. Thanks for posting the photos.

I'd like to hear more about any of them that are older or rarer.

there is something unusual about those d series 2 of them are the same model and had different carbs they looked similar on the outside but on the inside totaly different one had the typical cork float the other had a big plastic float that was spring loaded and the needle is plactic molded to the float its called a modular carb

It's possible that one of the D-series engines didn't have its original carb. For those engines, I like the metal carbs -- interchangeable if you also change the reed plate.

Some model 5124 came with that carb. I have one and no problems.
I have a 5214 5127 8232 8252 8237 8100 10360. The 2 that i like the best are 8232 and 8237. The 8232 has a D640 engine with a metal carb and the 8237 has a F engine with a plastic carb. On the 8237 i had the vane shaft break and i damage the throttle spring by hitting a fir tree branch. I find the the lawn boys are very easy to fix. On the 8252 i had a small jump start when i engaged the self-propelled

That's how many I would probably have, if there were no woman in my life to "voice her opinion." I have 13 right now and thought I was over-doing it. You've given me new hope! Craig's List, here I come. There's gotta be another one that I don't have yet!
