Hello All,
I am a brand new member and looking for guidance in a restoration.
I picked up the above mower at the local tip recycler's. It has Briggs and Stratton model 92502 engine - Type 0938 -01 and Code 78072809. First off, can anybody help me with understanding the Type and Code numbers please?
Secondly, I have quickly pulled the engine down a little - de-coked the head and valves, cleaned out the carbie. There is no spark. I have checked the condenser and points - neither look like they have ever been touched. I was thinking of replacing the electrics with a kit - coil, points, condenser, etc - but was wondering if there are options to this? Maybe an electronic device of some sort? Any info would be appreciated.
The mower is a pretty much flat base - no catcher chute or side chute. It is a deep blue - hammer finish. There is a small Rover sticker on the height adjuster, but nothing else to clearly identify it is Rover.
As the mower is complete, in basically good nick, has compression, this is going to be my first mower restoration project. Any help form others who may have or know of this type of mower would be hugely appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
Jeff49 (Wallis)
