Deal for today

[Mike88se]

Yep, or shear key on the flywheel.

Okay, the flywheel key is fine. The valves seem fine. I took the head off and every thing looks fine. I put it all back together and the rope pulls easy now. The only other thing I did was adjusted the air gap since it was close enough that there was no airgap. Still haven't got it to start though. I got the Ryobi es30 to run before I started on the Toro. After I put the tools away and parked the mower I wanted to start the Ryobi to get a little good feeling to offset the Toro fail. It wouldn't start. Ryobi :thumbdown:

I fixed the Toro and sold it for $75. Figuring out the Toro problem was tough since there was so many things wrong. I think the last problem was either a bad bulb or the fuel line was too long. Got the Ryobi trimmer to start and run reliably and sold it for $75. I don't know if I mentioned it but the electric starter on that trimmer actually works... bought batteries for it at HD for $10. Almost done with the fiberglass on the Honda but somebody gave me a Honda plastic shell and transmission so I'll see if it can transplant the engine onto that shell. I guess the Honda and Ryobi trimmer deal was good. The trimmer sale covered my costs so the mower was free. Not sure if all this makes sense but I was outside most of the day and think I got brain freeze :confused2:

It's always fun to get things running but even better when you can make money on them.

I picked up a 48 inch craftsman for free no hood and engine is junk and tires are dry rotted but the deck and transaxle are good and will fit my husqvarna 24/48

I guess he didn't say where and when he used it... a couple of times

To me, a couple of times = a few days at the time!

They say " A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words"

But in this case the picture shows the saw has "A Thousand Hours"
