Hi all,
I've just picked up a Scott Bonnar 45 from the misses old man where it was sitting out in the shed unused for last 10 years.
I've no experience with cylinder mowers but always wanted one and so happily took it off his hands and looking to refurb it. Thus have the engine in a number of parts at this stage and after some advice.
The carby is stuffed so i need a new one of those but cannot find one on the internet anywhere... its a 3.5HP Briggs and Stratton and i found the following number on the cover shield: 60202 0198 01 6902053. No idea what that tells me other than the 60202 seems to be a model number but from all other internet posts it appears under 2 and 2.25HP? I also need the carby springs and new air filter and a few other bits and pieces. The blades are also fairly warped and no doubt will need to be straightened out and sharpened.
Wondering whether its worth going through the hassle of new parts for the what im assuming is the original engine or as per my local mower shop assistants advice - buy a new motor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.. will post some pics now also
