Hi All,

Sorry for taking so long to get back.

With work commitments, going overseas for a while. I have just now had a chance to get back to the Lawn mower and replace the Original Piston Rings with a new Standard Ring Kit and use it on the 60 PSI motor.

I found that the Piston had a few grooves where gravity pushes it down.

Unfortunately I didn't buy a new Piston , just the Piston Ring Kit.

I followed YouTube Videos and replaced the Piston Rings.

And reinstalled the Piston and Conrod, I reused the Gasket as it seem in good condition.


All I can say is that I did not get an increase in Compression.

Compression has remained the same. It starts okay after priming and a few pulls.


It starts pretty much straight away if I turn it off for a minute and then restart it.


I reused it's original Carby with the other Faulty(45PSI) Motor's Throttle lever/Cable/Hose , Fuel Tank and Covers.

After replacing the above stuff and priming again, it started after a few pulls also.


For now , I will let it go and see if I can get it started in a few days. I might need to prime it a few times and start it on full throttle for it to start , but I am happy with that as i have been advised it is not a issue.

If I remember I will post if I need advice.


With the Faulty 45PSi motor , I am keeping for parts only.

Also the funny thing is, if you pay attention there are people throwing out Hard Rubbish that's worth taking. I have been able to score 2 other Late Model 2 Strokes a Victa VSZ160 Razor and a Victa Bronco.

So I am pretty much all good for 2 Strokes. All the Victa Bronco needed was a clean, and the Pull Cord Return Spring Re-bent into position a new Pull cord and Handle installed. It started after priming and on the second pull.

I have not tried the VSZ160 Razor.


Thanks to everyone for their help.

Harry
