  • In "Help Needed", Taryl tackles an old rototiller from 1980 and Slippers calls the Lawn Mower Detectives when something appears to be wrong at the shop. The mower detectives show up and are forced to drawn their weapons... How will it end??
    After the intro and before the conclusion, Taryl attempts to polish this old turd of a rototiller. What brand even is this thing? Looks like a Lawn-Boy but it's not. Anyway, can he bring this old piece of vintage fecal back from the septic? Or should it stay flushed where it once belonged, in the scrap yard. And as always... There's Your Dinner!!

    Great recovery on that tiller. Sometimes you have to reverse engineer the crummy work by the previous owner to fix a problem. This is a nicely running tiller, that took some patience and experience to fix. To rescue this machine from the scrap yard and repair to such a good state must be a satisfying feeling.

    I have a buddy who's Dad has a spring manufacturing business in his garage. garage is ram packed with spring making machines and only has walking space between them. It was a very interesting tour of his garage as he can manufacture any spring to high specs and tolerances, high performance engine valve springs to itsy bitsy ones. Wondered how much you could make on spring then I saw a pallet box that I when I picked up handful I was like, there must be ten million in there. Sits there in the garage churning out mucho de boingo ef yeah.

    The starter clutch is eminently serviceable and easy to clean. The square starter 'boss' is made of sintered metal so it is designed to retain oil and be naturally friction-free. Just clean the inside with a .45-.50 cal gun barrel cleaning brush, clean the inner star chamber and clean the steel balls with solvent. Reassemble, add a few drops of motor oil to the hole in the end of the square piece and voila, it's functional again.

    Maybe the guy who had that was like my grandfather. He would make me tip his tiller over on its side while he filled the crankcase with oil right to the top. No matter how much I told him it wasn't good for it, he wouldn't listen to me. I guess the only advantage was, with all that oil all over it, it didn't rust.

    I had a rotortiller with a lawn mower engine on it, had to replace the bad engine. No one would buy it because it looked old( the frame was dating the machine) As soon as I painted the thing all black, It sold right away. It was an old MTD as well. Same exact color but used a belt drive . I have had other equipment that people shied away from because they saw the color and wouldn't buy it. Had a gold craftsman tiller as well, painted that black as well, same effect.
