Tyler and Gadge, cheers. I ended up with a 13/16th impact socket "just in case". Didn't realise it'd be that simple to remove the flywheel. And if just splicing in a wire or two will give me EI, I will perhaps just do that.

Slow going otherwise. I've ordered some parts (gaskets, muffler, drive belt) from ODK for a start. I'm hoping they will arrive not to long after my manual. Fingers crossed! Going to try to clean up the engine and deck a bit this weekend.

I don't collect mowers. I just require Multiple Mowing Solutions™.
