It’s a Snapper Push-Mower, and I hit a pipe and I think I bent the crankshaft. How much will it cost to repair?
I don’t think the engine itself is damaged, because I got it to start, it just makes the whole mower shake uncontrollably (so I quickly switched it off). I think it’s just a bent crankshaft, which is causing the blade to oscillate instead of turn on center.

What is the tool called that is used when taking a riding lawnmower front wheel off?

This tool has two pegs that make the ring around the axle get bigger allowing the ring to be taken off. Thank you!

The mower is a Scott elite 16″ model. I bought it from Home Depot and it was a floor model, so I have no owners manual. I need to cut the grass shorter.

I just found a Craftsman Lawnmower in the trash that had a snapped pull cord, and watery fuel. I just fixed it, and it runs awesome! The only problem is the oil is milkshake brown. I had it checked by an expert who said the oil should be fine if it was changed. We all know that their is a little oil left in the crankcase after draining, but i would like to clean the engine of the milky brown oil. I thought of draining the oil thats in it, and running some waste oil through to clean the engine. Should i do that?

This won’t be a one time thing, so I need something that makes sense. I though about hooking up a small trailer to my car, but that may not be reasonable. I have an ‘89 Toyota Corolla. I am looking for any ideas on how to haul it without a trailer possibly. Is there some type of bike rack that would hold it? Any ideas?

I have an older Toro 2-cycle lawn mower with a Suzuki engine and a Mikuni carburetor. While idling, the speed surges and then comes back down. If I raise the speed it runs fine as it does while mowing. Is there an adjustment I can make so it idles evenly? Thanks.

Frederic S asked:


I want to know how long it lasts per charge and how many charges you get out of it before it needs to be replaced? I also was wondering how much electricity they use per charge and if they are less expensive to run than gas mowers?
