rotoscytheben 94 #36 Posted July 6, 2014 well i thought it was about time i got on with a few bits with the old nash mowers particularly the latest arrival that came 3 weeks ago from wanstrow somerset from my mate jason i knew the spark had gone so required a points clean luckily this machine has the inspection hole in the flywheel so easy once that was attended to she fired straight up i had hoped to video the proceedings but before i could get the camera going it ran out of fuel i had only used a thimble of fuel anyway i will get a vid up soon if you can see through the cloud of smoke they produce when running here are a few pics anyway now ive given her a bit of a clean up now all i need is some new rollers for the old girl and she will be just peachy 1 steve d reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
