Inspired by speedy's recent video of his renovated Pope mower in action -

https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/116787/old-pope-2-stroke.html#Post116787

I thought some may enjoy seeing one of my scrapbin rescues in action slashing in rough terrain.

I'm always very pleased when I can get old mowers to idle very slowly because I often need to stop slashing to move large sticks or rocks, or empty catchers (which are seldom used when slashing)

Anyway, just a bit of Saturday arvo fun :-)

What is the story of the Rover branded mowers? I used to hire from a local Kennards some years ago and they were Rovers.

The last one I had failed to proceed and they told me that their fleet had been destroyed due to the local service station supplying them with E10 without their realising the change! Thats how I remember it anyway...seem likely?

Put E10 fuel in anything that is not used every few days and you are asking for trouble
