Default Re: Mowing ..

I had a victa with a Briggs motor for about 15years, the engine was smoky from day one but always started first pull. The wheel bearings are worn out and rickety from use as I have 4 lawns I mow regularly.
When time came to upgrade, I wanted a Honda and looked at some HRU something units for epic dollars but only had half a chute. Thru a contact at a bunnings I work at, they had a display mustang with the Honda engine with some parts missing they gave me $200 off with a list of spares I needed (worth $20 ��).
The Honda is plenty powerful and heaps more fuel efficient, plus has a big fuel tank. The other Honda advantage I find is the oil change is by tipping the unit to the side, no stuffing around propping it up on chairs to find the sump plug under the Briggs.
