Considering I only paid $60 for the lawn mower I was pretty happy as mechanically it was in great condition, nothing some dulux cant fix. I headed down to our local rubbish dump recycle shop on the weekend and scored big time. I found an old edger with a HK25 kirby engine, pull start and all linkages intact and it was only $15.00. Thanks for your help, I have 2 engines now so will easily get her up and running in no time.
