G'day Im Boffa,

Found this forum hunting for info on old Rover Ranchers (5-6 hp Briggs and Stratton types) after old faithfull spat and then shredded the drive belt for the cutting deck half way through the days work.

My stable includes a Victa 2 stroke monster Slasher/Mower, a white (MTD?) turf mower which is totally useless but has a nice lekky start 13 horse B&S, a late model Victa 2 stroke house mower and Old Faithful.

So the grass is growing its bum off down here and in the interests of fire safety and snake control im madly slashing 4 foot grass at the moment on my 7 acre block and my maintainence on the fly technique (When it breaks, fix it) has brought me here.

Im also inspired to do the right thing by the old Rover and give her a coat of paint and maybe transplant the donk from the White into her for ease of starting and a 3 fold grunt increase so im going to be picking your brains for help on all these things.

Some piccies shortly!

Boffa
