I live in England. I was given an old Victa mower. It came with an original receipt dated 1973 and came from "Cronulla Mower Service" I restored it and it now cuts my lawn as often as English weather allows! It is a great old mower that's for sure! It is a 125cc "Storebrand" mower. Does anyone know what "Storebrand" is? Also the manual that came with it says to use BP Zoom. Is that a type of petrol? Strangely the mower was fitted with 2 spark plugs. One was not connected in any way. I don't know why a single cylinder , 2 stroke motor would have this feature.
Any ideas anyone?
And is "Cronulla Mower Service" still going?

Rich,
Can you e-mail under contact details as I need to send you some information on the machine. As far as the fuel mixture goes you just need to use the same mix as what you are using there because the BP is a fuel company here in Australia and they make a two stroke mix which includes petrol & oil (the ratio is 25 parts standard petrol or unleaded and one part oil).

Regards,
Bruce
