Thats fugging a right.

32oz Miller high life stove pipes don’t fit a cup holder anyhow.

North vs. South and the North won.

Big time. LOL

Sorry, slum.

23 years old.
Sharpening blades and making sure that little gear box is full of oil.

I don't know if they still make them that way but the old snapper comets - the Forrest Gump mower, used to have 2 brackets on the back, which right or wrong, we always used to tip them up and hold them so you could work on the deck

I just bought a cheap 1300lb electric hoist for $100 and I'm going to mount it in my car port so I can lift mowers, my boat /boat motor and maybe if the need occurs a car motor. A few weeks ago I used a jack on my mower to get under the deck, popped off the clip holding the deck, which in turn messed up the tension holding the belt and that turned into a pain in the ass to fix.

It's not ugly, but we have an old Craftsman mower from the 90s that is still chugging away. Needs the carb worked on though, have to run it with the choke half pulled. Change the oil in it every other year, a fuel filter every five years or so, clean the air filter whenever I think of it it (not often).

Kohler made a good motor back then.

dump some seafoam in it and change the plug. might be all you need.

Do you have to move them every couple of days to avoid those unsightly yellow spots on the lawn?

I expected to see more faces than lawnmowers

Few years ago an aynor, sc (i think)cop dash cam video surfaced showing the arrest of the mayor tooling around town streets at night on his riding mower, drunk, and drinking a beer. He had trouble understanding why there was a problem with that.

Mine has to be two Gravleys 30" deck.
49 and early 50s model.

Need to get one running again, I am getting to old to push a mower.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a shot.

Hell with a push mower. And add the string trimmers as well.
Ride to cut and ride to spray liquid string trimmer juice.

I' have to take the engine shroud or main shell off my Huskee mower for maintainence.
What are the cons of leaving it off, like Slummy?

other than no headlights, none. half my mowers run hoodless.
