Hi all,

my name's Windy- I'm here to try to learn more about keeping my lawnmowers in service. I have just inherited a 1980 rover colt 4hp (major?) Ride on, and i own an abused Honda gxv-140, and a victa something with a briggs and stratton 35 engine.

Hello Windy6cyl

A warm welcome from me to these great forums.

A good place to start every visit is 'Active Topics'.
However, getting use to the search bar at top is a great resource finder.

A Colt 4hp would be a Colt Minor.

I hope your experience is rewarding.

Hello and welcome to the forum. This is a great place to share information and also to learn about the fascinating history of the various outdoor machinery here. The people have been very helpful to me and Im sure that they will make you most welcome too.


Yesterday is history
Tommorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift
That is why it is called the present.
