I have a Honda HRR2167VXA mower that has recently developed a bad vibration. The blades have been replaced, so I do not suspect that to be the issue. The vibration is worse when the mower is started up, and it smooths out some when the blade is engaged. The self propelled drive seems to be working fine. I have not begun to tear the mower apart, thought I would seek some advice first.
Engine bolts are good and tight, do not have specs for proper torque.
Will look into carb issues, but it starts, runs strong (other than vibration).
Oil looks fine and does not have any odor other than oil, and is not off color.
No, have never pulled the engine shroud, will do this in the next couple of days. Do not have a service manual for this mower, does anyone have one they could forward to me?

I'd measure the distance on the blade tip to a known spot then do the other side. Make sure that the blade or crankshaft is not bent.
Sounds okay. Possible grass clippings/mud on the blade throwing the blade out of balance. Flip the deck up and see if you have a wire or lawn trash on the blade. Put a cinder block on the handle to hold the mower up for you.
