Bout 3 weeks ago, i got a call from a friend-he said he had a lawn tractor for me-free- haul it away! Needless to say-i went there pronto! The owner helped us get the tractor up the ramps into my truck, and i went back home.
Owner said it had been flooded when the crick out back had riz up over its banks. Said he thought it was junk, so take it away! Which i did.
Changed the oil, blew out everything, took off the flywheel cover, blew out the crud there, installed a new battery, set on the seat, and got it started! Tested it--it mows and drives.
Today, i polished the paint on it, and also painted the deck. Tomorrow gifs a few more things to take care of, then it'll get chained to the phone pole out front with a for sale sign on it. Its a darby looking piece, and runs great!
