My 20+ year old B&S 3hp fitted to a Scott Bonnar reel mower will not start.
She is nowhere near starting!
Petrol seems to be getting through and I don't think there's a spark, but haven't had time to look properly.
My question is a bit generic but as its attached to a Scott Bonnar that you cant just lift and put in the boot to go to the mower shop I was wondering if there is any common electrical fault it might be, and roughly how much it would cost?
Also how much would it cost to just replace the whole engine as I would need to unbolt it anyway to take it to the mower shop minus the mower, and it is 20+ years old and does puff a bit of smoke.
I'm hedging over the pick up cost they would charge plus repair on a 20+ year old versus just replacing brand new, that I can fit myself
