Default Lawn Mower

NOW OFF TO A NEW HOME.


Hi all,

My neighbour is having a a shed clearout (what else is there to do?) which has revealed...

A Qualcast Suffolk Punch 43

Running when put away

Probably needs some TLC

We realise it might be a while before it can be collected......

Andy.

I have one like that. Elderly owner wanted a lawn with stripes but couldn't get on with petrol engine, choke etc. I bought it, cleaned the carb, replaced the spark plug (squirted some redex down the bore) and changed the oil. It started first pull and has done ever since. My lawn is a bit small for it (had a Suffolk Colt before) but the stripes are impressive! Enjoy!

As some are aware mowers are my only interest in life (I must get out more). Qual cast bought out Atco many years ago and arnt th same in th build department. Mowers were on th hole were well engineered years ago and had a price to match. Now they are plastic carbed throw away items.. Iv got 15 in various conditions and a big fan of th Suffolk Punch 98 4 stud.. Especially th 10 blade cassette precision cut. They make a great noise in a very low revving put putt type of way...

So a corona virus (nothing better to do) question. What is this then..
