OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Tip & Curb Side Finds VC160 - Just Got This From The Tip

10 dollars





Got this little gem home and as it was pouring rain just put fuel in it. i felt lucky. well it started first pull but the throttle stuck on full. so i turned the fuel off. sounded good.
the people next door may feel differently

A VC-160 mark III good find indeed.All looks good except the front wheels are not the right ones they are more the VC-125 wheels or even from the 60's but other than that great score well done.If the engine is original it should start with 5272.I see it even has the throttle cable clip on the cooling cowl they are getting hard to find.
Good work.

that will tidy up sweet , got your G3 at last too ! soak the cable a while sometimes they free up nicely

Well hasn't that cleaned up well.Just curios as to why you take pictures at night?It would look even better in the daylight.That's not dirty its clean look at the bottom photos.Cool it even still has the white tap on it.

thanks blumbly. as to why i take photos at night. it takes me up to 10 beers to get them working or clean. and it is night then. is the white tap special?

OK got you its on the beer scale totally understand now.The white tap I wouldn't say is special it's just the original one and a lot of them have been replaced.Getting harder to find.I'm after a heap of them as a lot of my mowers didn't have them when I got them.
