yes i'm addicted to free section on craigslist. not quite as bad as bass fishing, but, this is why
the owner just said it didn't run. well as i was loading it parts and pieces hit the ground....
so i knew he tried to fix it and gave up or something and i got it back together and started the rabbit hole searching you tube.
before i tore into the thing i put in a little gas just to see.....man it started 2nd pull and ran perfect!
i did have a leak, but just the bowl gasket...easy
well i don't type this much normally....
i have another troy bilt with a honda eng but i'll share it next time

that troy bilt was the nicest mower i've ever used! it was like driving a Buick lasabre .....it found a new owner that doesn't know a thing about lawn mowers....hope he treats it good.
