Lady gave me a Honda GCV 160.....looks rough....have questions.

OK so this potential mowing client hired me (then forgot she hired me and hired someone else...oh well...how it goes) but she had me take off a Honda GCV 160 that some fool had been running with the air filter off of it. Hopefully I can get it going.

Questions. When was it made?

Honda GCV 160 "Black Max" Model #: 961440003 00

Serial #: 120308M 002432

Front wheels look rough.....are these still available?

If it needs a new transmission, is that available?

Thanks!

Hope to get this going..........I could really use a self propelled mower

before putting money into it I'd get it in writing that it is yours. People do weird things.

I appreciate the suggestion but her neighbor gave it to her and I highly doubt she got anything signed. She's probably already forgotten she ever had it! LOL

Ordered new carb-mounting bolts, air filter, and air filter housing cover.

Is there a big washer that helps hold the blade on? What blade goes on this thing? Are there numbers on the blade to go by?
