This is the first episode of our fix n flip challenge. I picked up a free push mower a couple weeks ago, and wanted to get it running to sell, and buy another mower with the profits. I will continue fixing and selling until we have reached our $2000 goal.
You have a great mower for resale. I bought that model troy built 7 years ago and gave 349.00 for it, priced one last year.....nearly 450.00. It wont stay around for 120.00..... me, I would ask 175.00 and could always go down a bit......great series!!!!
Why do people spend money on stuff if they are not going to maintain it? I got into small engines and taught myself a few years ago. I have never paid for a lawn mower in my entire adult life, and I am over 40. Every single mower I have ever owned has been one that somebody threw out. I currently have 9 projects going myself right now, lol. Every single mower I get has just been neglected. If people took care of their stuff, they would save a lot of time and money in the long run.
START OUT AT 140.00 THEN GO DOWN TO 120.00 GOOD LUCK GOOD JOB BAYTOWN TEXAS
Great job bringing her back. You probably know, Amazon has the best prices on the Quantum Air filters. Approx. $2.80 ea.
I love that Briggs 6.25 engine. Those things are bulletproof, and they are so easy to work on. They are one of my favorites to mess around with.
2k holy damn I have to watch this
Here we go! Well on your way to upgrading a self propelled to a zero turn. Well done brother!
That was a startling transformation from what you got in the beginning. Your patience with the float and the carburetor was a good learning exercise. I’d forgotten you can use AT fluid to spruce up the appearance. Great video! Thanks!
The mower came out great Alex! Those are easy sells for me as they are resale red. I some times take all the wheel covers off and sell them with black wheels. The Bolens is going to be quite a challenge after you get all the green moss off of it, but you know it just needs alittle air in the tire and some fresh gas.😂 It ran fine last season!! 🤣😂🙃
Great job bringing that neglected mower back to life. Very satisfying to see it wake up again. It must be even more satisfying when you aee the tech who does the waking up work.
This has easily become my favorite channel on UA-cam. Keep up the good work Alex!
Looking forward to this series, Alex.
Looking forward to the next video. Your videos are always enjoyable - and informative. Let’s parlay this stuff to $2,000 !!!!!!
Man, I wish I could just find a single free or cheap mower around me. Seems like everyone is scooping them up on Marketplace before I even get a chance. Hoping for a side-of-the-road special one day...

I think this challenge will be really cool Alex. I was laughing about that Bolens though. I’m like I’ve seen worse and I’m sure you have too 😂
That Air filter is definitely not in great shape glad you are doing a fix flip on your repairs Alex
I like this challange. Hope this rider keeps you on the positive side when you go to sell it. As in the push mower covering the cost to get it up and running.
I got one of these for free last fall, cleaned it up and rebuilt the carb and know it's my main mower I use. Love the trigger for self propelling. It works great!
Can't wait to see the end result
