suffolk punch timing

[abelw44]

Hi, I'd just like to thank you all for your help as I have finally got the suffolk running again (although there were no timing marks in the end I just had to use the top dead centre trick)



thanks all

Based on the pictures in the .pdf manuals (which happen to be sideways :laughing: ) the mower looks like it's fairly old. Do you know when it was made? Could you post a picture of the whole mower?

Hi all,
actually the pictures in that manual aren't of the same model as mine, mine is a later (1994) model. However I will still post some pictures:

the lawn mower isn't actually in one piece at the moment!

And there is one called a Suffolk Colt which is the smaller brother of the Punch . Gary :smile:

I read up a little on the Suffolk Punch and come to find out, it was a "Draft Horse"!

Thanks... I had no idea the mower was named after a variety of horse. I thought it was just an amusing name for a mower.

Here is a link to a wikipedia page for it.

Thanks to abelw44 for the photo.
