Hi MF,
Wheels look pretty standard to me, no problems swapping it to another base if the motor runs. So often with Chondas I find they have had ethanol in them and the carby is stuffed and you can't get the main jet out to clean it. I guess the thinking of the people who buy these mowers is it is a cheap mower so I will use the cheapest fuel in it. New carby for them usually costs about $20 so depends on what you are going to do with the motor
