Sorry I lied, I haven't really got overhead foxtails (yet) but it is iPhone compatible, automatic, runs on unleaded and is VERY shiny!.

My latest finished project...

It started with this

The original 15hp engine was run without oil after its first service, BANG!! then a 12.5hp was grafted in and blew smoke like a Metalica gig so the mower was replaced with a new John Deere and this one was consigned to the hay shed for 8 years. That's when I got it. My intention was to sort the 12hp out but thought I'd try one of those cheap clone engines, I had nothing to lose so I began preparing. My neighbor who loves to come over and help (he's never done anything mechanical and just loves it) was excited so I said "let's do something special"

So, we ended up with this..

I'll show you what we did and how we did it.
In the next few days.
