Here is my current project a bitsa ( bits of everything) It has a tecumseh engine mounted on a Rover rebel base.
I had a lot of trouble getting the cantankerous engine to go. It had a good spark so no trouble there. It would fire but not continue to run even with assistance of electric drill. I took carby off twice and cleaned it and still no different Then I took it off again and noticed that the gasket was only half there (duh).So I made a new gasket for it and it goes like the clappers now! even with no blade base for it! Now I have to fine a suitable blade base and blades for it and I think that it will be quiet a good mower. I have also fixed up the handle that was broken. Since the pictures were taken I have added the air cleaner to it.
Here are some pictures.
