Curb side picked this mower up.

Self propelled Craftsman 6.5 HP mower setting out for th etrash people or people like me.
So wondered when I got it home if it would start as most are pitched beause they have crudded up carbs.
Primed it and 2 pulls it was running but making a GAWD AWFUL noise underneath.


Flip it over and this is what I find .
I went to the sears parts wearhouse in Flint to buy the part. Splirged and got a new blade and the bolt to hold the blade on the crank.


$36.00 in parts, could have been less if i had gotten a new blade and bolt at TSC.
Nice mower almost as nice as my AWD Husky is for mowing ditches.

Husband has been recently going to some house auctions that say garden supplies. He'd come home with some good stuff for little money. one of which was a good self starting push mower for 5 dollars. and then there are lots of garden tools, hanging things, etc.

I found one last year that you could hardly pull the rope out. They had overfilled the oil. I drained it, cleaned the plug and it started right up. I love the curb!
