Snapper21500PC refurb

That looks great. Makes me want to dig out the old Snapper aluminum deck mower a neighbor gave me several years ago after he hit something and bent the crankshaft. I have a cast deck Craftsman I would like to give a forum member looking for a project.

Wow, that craftsman is really cool looking, I've never seen one like that before

Looks real good! I've been looking for one of these. Bought a commercial with a Wisconsin on it the other day. Wish it was a briggs model like yours. I can't get this Wisconsin to run worth a hoot!

Alanky which engine is on your commercial snapper? The 125 2cycle or the 185 4cycle? Does it have spark? Yes we gotta have some pics of that!!

Well, I got one of each! The 2-cycle I just cleaned the carb and it came right to life. Runs good and I love the sound of it. He wanted $50 for it. Now the 4-cycle Wisconsin snapper he wanted $75 for. Tried to buy both for $100, but he was firm. I bit the bullet since I had not found any Wisconsin snappers in my 4 years of daily Craigslist snooping. Had two of them right infront of me, so I bought them. I give up on the 4-cycle, think I made my first snapper mistake! It would hit but not start. Pulled the carb off and cleaned it. Then it would run good on choke only. So I thought maybe I missed the idle circuit. Pulled carb again and blew out the gas lines/tank. Started and ran beautiful! Next day I went to start it and now it will run for 5 seconds and die. Re-start and repeat, 5 seconds run time is all I can get out of it now.

I'll get you guys some pics. I'll have to move 15 snappers to get pics. I shoved the 4-cycle all the way to the back of the building! Done with it for now!

Digging up an old post. I keep looking back at it. This is the mower I originally started looking for 5 years ago. I'd trade ya a whole stack of my snappers for this, Haha! You've got Honda snappers too..wish I had your luck!

Lol the funny thing is I had another one last year and sold it to a guy down in Los Angeles. He saw it on cl and actually had a guy that just picks up and delivers stuff up and down the state come pick it up. $100 cash. But I guess it was the closest to him that he could find. It sure is one of the rarer ones. That's one I should've kept. Still have never found locally a commercial with the WR185.

Well, atleast I got one on ya then. It could be yours...:wink:

Dude I wish I had the dough. Even not running great that thing is still worth at least $100. And shipping to here isn't cheap. But yes that would be sweet! I thought u had pics of it but I can't find them.
