It's not been an easy road keeping my LawnBoy L21ZSM in running condition. Piston ring issues, reed valves, exhaust, carb, ignition modules, you name it, I've had an issue with it. And parts are getting very scarce.
On the plus side, I still have the side discharge bagging kit (brand new) that I was looking forwrd to using if I can get the mower up and running, along with a new Gator blade. I have to work on this mower myself, as no dealer or repair shop (within driving range) will touch an old 2 stroke Lawnboy at this point.
What do you guys think? Is it worth it to keep this old mower running, or should I finally say goodbye and focus on a 4 stroke. I still have my commercial Snapper Wisconsin Robin mower from 1988 that is running like a top. Almost $700 new, and that was a lot of $$ back then, but I certainly got my money out of it. And it's still paying dividends.
Thanks.
