well its been a busy day i had a close look at the mower itself and decided it was a tip job so i stripped her down and kept the wheels with brand new tyres and the gearbox 5 speed the bonnet and engine and seat.the seat is a beauty its off a komatsu digger lol fabric and comfy just needs a clean.as far as the engine is concerned i think the fuel prob was because the twit had conected the supply to the return line and the return to the supply.i will confirm this later when i play next.thats all for now peoples gotta be worth the 103 dollars i paid
