G'day All,
Just a quick note to wish you all a great Christmas, and to thank you for your help.
The muffler still isn't fixed, but I'll be retiring to part time work in January, and this will be one of my first projects. Some disc pads have been ordered, and when they are fitted, I should be able to somewhat reduce the number of times I use a wall or fence for stopping the mower!
My father worked for Victas for many years, and also had his own lawn mower / motorbike repair shop. As I'm also a mechanic myself, working on small engines is far from new to me.
Nevertheless, the information & help this web site provides is invaluable, and I'm much obliged for the way you've helped.
Thanks again, I'll probably be back again, as it seems that many relatives & friends have problems with machines which will keep me out of mischief during my "retirement".
May you all have a blessed Christmas and a great new year!
Cheers
Maurie
