Lenny's Small Engine Service

Yesterday was a busy successful day managed to knock out a No GoGo Troy-Bilt mower, No GoGo Craftsman mower, No GoGo champion pressure washer and a Craftsman mower who's pullcord just decided it didn't want to pull over anymore. In non technical terms there is 2 little fingers we'll call them in the recoil for the pullcord that when you pull the cord they come outwards grabbing the cup that's bolted to the engine and spin the engine over each time you pull apon release they retract well both of them came out of the mounted position and was laying inside the cup nothing appeared worn or damaged so I reinstalled them and after many tests everything seemed to be functional again. After speaking with the customer it the cause may have been self inflicted by him from bouncing up and down stairs from it's old storage location. Hence a little bit of advice to push mower owners when they get plugged up with grass its best to shut the mower off and clean out under the deck because banging and smashing it up and down will eventually cause damage they are not designed to be treated like a bucking Bronco.

Just a heads up to folks the shop will be closed from August 15th to the 28th I'm taking some much needed vacation time. I apologize in advance to those that may be requiring work during that time.

Got the mowers cleared up faster then expected so because I'm a sucker for punishment I had the brilliant idea to quickly throw a frame together run to my local big box store grab 20 but ended up getting 17 due to technical difficulties bags of quikrete and start the dry pour process for the next walkway yard makeover. Once this is done I will also do a dry pour strip below my fancy brick wall to add stability to it. Then the whole hill will have a truck load of topsoil to shape and integrate it to the hill on the right. This improvement will not only make it easier and safer for me bringing equipment up and down it will also prevent continued yard damage and allow much easier access when running my snowblower to and from the rear yard for clearing an area for our fur baby's.

Another productive weekend husky parts came in and it went home Saturday, the Lawnboy issue got addressed and returned and the 2 battery powered worx mowers received some blade sharpening.
