This Wednesday has been a busy one for me. I mowed my yard and picked up trash and cut-up a tree that was blown down. Today has been very windy all day. I would not let the wind stop me from doing what needed to be done before my vacation was all used up. I went to a pawn shop yesterday and bought a pressure washer for 75.00. I then had to spend an additional 27. for a gas tank because the one that was on it was leaking. I then bought a new air cleaner filter and a new spark-plug. I took the carburetor off and carried it to Johnson's Saw and Lawnmower repair to have it rebuilt. I was told that the kit would cost 11.00 and to rebuild it would cost about 25.00 more.
I am in need of a pressure washer and feel like this will be a good deal. This is a 6hp OHV that looks to have had little use. It looks like whoever owned it let some water get in the tank and foul up the carburetor. I pulled the carb off and cleaned it out and reinstalled it on the mower and started the mower up, but it only ran for about 5 minutes and stopped. I determined that fuel was not getting through to the engine.
In a couple of days I will know if I was right.
Now I am getting sleepy and am ready to go to bed and get ready for tomorrows work.
