1980s Snapper Hi Vac - still works

[Setec1987]

Hi everyone,

I bought this 21351PD Snapper Hi Vac, and got it running. It looks like a late-80's model, with a B&S 92902-3271 3.5 HP engine. It needed some maintenance and cleaning, but once I got it started, it went. Impressive that it still works and cuts after this many years.

I have the bag chute but no bag; I usually leave my clippings on the lawn, anyway.

Congrats. I had one like it until my wife begged me to give it to my BIL.

If you'll empty all the fuel for winter (or other long storage), and change the engine oil once a year... it will last another 20 years.

I will do both - best practice and not difficult.
