Hi Max and Jack
Jack, I was in no way inferring that someone was right and someone was wrong about anything in my post, please accept my apologies if it appeared that way. I think my posts clearly display that I am completely out of my depth in relation to vintage mowers and knowledge about them but am enjoying my mowers, learning a bit and like this site. All the wealth in Fort Knox couldn't buy the wealth of experience and knowledge that you and other members provide and I'm very great full of that.
Cheers
