Did two more small videos today once home from work.

1st one is just me moving the shaft left and right (need sound)


2nd one is it running. Also blows out a lot of smoke but seems to settle down after awhile.


It does vibrate to, not really bad like some videos I watched on youtube but you can fell it in the handle.

So when it is over it's service limit was does that mean? Bent crankshaft or more? I measured 1.5mm while lifting the flywheel up and down and getting someone to hold a ruler next to it. Mower is just over 1 year old.
