I accidently dislodged the spark plug lead during mowing and after backfiring the mower blew something out of the device above the carby (looks like a diagphram). After that - no spark. The mower No. MU342A5. Can you provide details on ignition components please, or advise.

ozziebrian,

Your mower is a Victa Standard.

I am sending you information on the carby which might help to get your spark back. I think that you have moved the cut out wire and it could be shorting out.

Many thanks Bruce for your prompt reply and the detailed information you provided. Can't wait to get out in the shed tomorrow and get the old girl revving again. I Hope!!!
