Hi brycevr,
Thanks for the post. Been looking at this and other similar threads recently as my Dad has a Rover XL from the early 90's with a Suzuki 2-stroke. My Dad no longer mows, but it's a quality piece of kit as it was subject to at least 10-15yrs of Sydney mowing and shows little external wear apart from the wheels.
My Dad said it was becoming difficult to start- 3 pulls, so based on what you and others say I'll look at the choke adjustment then carby esp. as the fuel was allowed to dry out in it- hopefully carby cleaner will be enough.
Posts like yours pointing out particular problem areas and fixes are very helpful.
Thanks,
