My new Victa started to earn it's keep today.
Last pics of it clean, after a bit of detailing...........
One of my clients who has failing eyesight noticed that I was using a new mower, such was the glossiness
Nothing cuts like a brand-new mower!
Engine has good torque, but doesn't rev very hard. Briggs and Stratton like to tout these engines being very fuel efficient and this particular one has what they call QPT-Quiet Power Technology. Well, when you rev an engine less, of course it will make less noise and consume less fuel! I will run the engine in, change the oil and then give it a little tune-up adjustment.
Speaking of oil changes, this sticker proudly adorns the side of the engine -
No way in hell will I be just checking and adding the oil on this machine. Crazy concept, I guess to reduce consumer effort and keep them buying petrol engines?
Overall, I am very happy with it and glad I paid a bit more for the alloy base Mustang and larger 163cc engine. Really loving the push-button start as well.
