Yeah sorry about the lack of info but I think it'll be worth it.I'm new to the fixing mower thing and it is a reflex action on thinking victa = 2stroke.But anyway Its a 2 stroke 160 powertorque.Not much water came out i'd say 50ml at most and it was a tad milky probably from mixing with oil off the barrel.It didnnt have any look of rust at all, I think I have got on to it quick enough that is why I want to strip it down straight away.I'll take the starter off in the morning and take some pics.

I thought I'd pop up a quick pic of the mower I know it's not of the internals but if the engine turns out to be ok I think it'll scrub up a treat, hence I dont realy want to think about using it for parts just yet
