Got me thinking, might be time for a new one. I'd like a 4 stroke Honda but I know their worth a pretty penny. I was wondering what our members push around their back yards?why not reuild it for a $80 yourself and have it run good as new for anutha 10 years?I got a victa 2-stroke mower new about 6 years ago, she pulls first start every time except after I wash it every now and then.. she dun like water!!

It had no tread on the rear wheels, so had been used a bit. Was used every week for 9 years. Awesome mowersMy Oldman has one he bought I'd say 20 or more years ago, apart from blowing clouds of smoke for the first 10 mins, it hasn't missed a beat. I will swap him when his bites the dust.
