So why are people concerned about them overrevving a bit higher than normal then? (Not referring to the original post here).
In the 1980s, our neighbour's late 1960s Corvette with wind up starter used to rev quite high and I loved using it when I did their lawn. I was a bit disappointed actually, when it was adjusted after coming back from a service at the mower shop.
I was to enjoy another high revving Victa again when I did this other woman's lawn and used her late husband's mower. I loved doing her lawn. We had some great chats too and I got to put her machine through it's paces. Good memories. Of course, I never kept them going at full throttle. I just liked to put it up for a moment to hear the higher than normal note!
