  • @nealsims1862
    @nealsims1862 3 роки тому

    I just had to clean up my Craftsman mower that I bought new three years ago. I only used it a couple of times and was diagnosed with cancer. My lawn guy used it on my lawn a few times while I was sick. Three years later I got it out and it didn’t start. So cleaned out the float chamber and jet on the carb and changed the oil, and it started right up. I figured I should sharpen the blade. Surprise, it was on upside down. It has never been off, so it came that way from the factory. Sears ain’t what they used to be. The back side was all shiny from beating the grass. The cutting side was almost like new, just a little rusty.

    Great video. My dad hated lawn mowers so he refused to maintain them. I had no clue how to do it when I was a kid. So I would put gas in and keep running it until it died. Then we would throw it in the trunk and drive up to the place that repaired and sold used mowers. He would trade the dead one in on a "new" one and the cycle would begin again. When I bought my house the old guy who lived next door gave me some tips on how to maintain my mower. That was 2002. I still have the same mower today.

My next maintenance on it will be is a clean up on the oil tube and checking the gasket for any wear
