Thanks Jack, I agree. I will run a mix of 25:1 same as my other Villiers mowers. Have not had any problems, I cleaned up some parts this afternoon, taking advantage of the high temperature to dry them off quickly.

I am happy with the amount of original paint left although the reel will get a coat of paint to protect the blade surfaces. I will be using the mower so I am happy with this decision.
