going to be a busy little beaver this winter i am, got 14 push mowers(wight's, mtd's, and lawnboy's) to repair. along with that have 16 riders that may get done in the process( murray, mtd, jc penny, snapper's, allis chalmers, and 2 JD-86's w/baggers). been looking for yard tractor snow blower attachment's to repair. :drool: i have had people asking me about thing's that may be wrong with their mower's, i keep telling them if they want me to look at it i might be able to tell them a bit better what it may be. :rolleyes:

That is a boat load of equipment you have there, i do not have that kind of room. good luck and have fun over the winter.

i fixed an older Poulan Pro push mower tonight (Tecumseh engine) the shear pin was broke and turned half way around the flywheel , also the blade was on upside down., wierd thing is was after i fixed it it still yanked the chord out of my hands several times, than it started and ran fine for 5 or so off and ons. it is a OHV engine, i am picking up a few mowers as well on the cheap for winter repair. I need to get my snow blowers out this weekend as well.
