Put some gas in it. It poured out of a hole in the carb. Tried to pull start it. No luck yet. I'll take it to my dad's garage and have her going in no time. Everything is there except the air filter and cover.

So can anybody help me identify this mower? I called sears.

That could be a really nice mower if you tore it down and rebuilt it. I'm with you about Craigslist, man. Don't buy new, buy Craigslist! Yeah, you might have to recondition it, but you've spent less, AND it's yours! AND it's paid for! AND you paid less! AND you made friends (sometimes)!In love with a MadScientist!:thumbright:
There's a fine line between breathtaking ingenuity and "That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen!"

I am a talker too. You get two of us together and it usually lasts. And if the conversation starts with or turns to festivas it can last 1-2 hours!youtube.com/neanderpaul 88 festiva LX w/BP G25 MR 5 speed waiting for wiring- 93 Festiva GL auto w/ air, waiting for B6t/G4A-HL - 98 Nissan Quest - 02 Mazda protege 5 wife's DD
