    Mower shopping

    I do not have a crawl space. Unfortunately due to different circumstances, the way I am doing it is my only option for now.

    New to forum

    Hi, I have an older Ariens self propelled lawnmower with a Tecumseh engine. Probably 20 years old or more. Usually I take great care of my equipment but not so with this. Right now the feature that stops the engine when releasing the bail does not work, needs multiple adjustments, the filter...
