I get quite a few of this sort of text message
hi how much to rev up honda hru197,i can feel its gone abit slow now,does it take long to rev it up? many thanks
When you reply that you would need to look at it you don't even get a reply, always gives me a laugh, the world can't be this stupid, but then I had a bloke ring me last night at 8.45pm wanting to know if he could come over at about 9.00pm to pick his mower up. I doubt my neighbors would be too impressed with me starting up his mower at that time of night, THE WORLD CAN"T BE THIS STUPID.

Oh I really loved those 2 am drunks wanting their mower repaired. I solved that problem as I now a phone system that automatically goes to sleep between 6PM and 8AM.
But that didn't stop them as they tried just coming by and knocking on the door. So I now got a chain across the driveway during my off duty hours which I am surprised they haven't tried driving though it.
I am available 60 hrs a week and I believe that is enough. I got to have time off to reset.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!

Norm - its actually quite simple. Tell him to hang onto the plug lead, and get someone else to pull the starter 5-15 times. That should fix it (or him)  I remember was that, apparently, when bunnings started stocking GMC 2 stroke petrol generators, people kept ringing them asking 'how much petrol does this generate.'

Sometimes you think they couldn't possibly be asking these questions.
And then there's the ones who fill up the oil to the top of the fill hole, put blades on backwards or upside down, gap the spark plug with a knitting needle, or hammer the electrodes together,
kero in the fuel tank, oil in the fuel tank, fuel in the sump, broken pull starts (because when it doesn't go after 50 pulls, 1 really hard pull will get it going, right?)...
and then some are alright
