I just purchased a Toro Wheel Horse 8-25 for $30 from Craigslist. There is nearly no rust and what is there is just surface rust. It needs a front tire and a front tie rod. The machine sat 2+ years with no gas in it. How do you think I did?

Jumped it off another mower after adding a little gas and it fired right up. Other than plug oil change and lubing everything what needs to be done to these? Any common issues with this model? Anyone have experience with this model?

Like all older mowers that were built to a quality standard excellent little mower.
Locked diff makes it a bit different to use and they all steer tighter in reverse
Nice size for for an acre or less as it goes through a std garden gate.
The side banger engines will run forever if you keep the oil up and change it regularly.
