Yes, thats right, alright!!! I have had a bad experience when I didn't check
the oil and the motor seized up. Still it didn't deter me from getting the
motor fixed as the mower is so good.

I notice that all of the lawn mowing contractors in our area use Honda
mowers too.

As long as you remember to check the oil level.
Isn't that right, Norman?

I've had a Honda 4 stroke for about 4 years now and its great. As Len
says,
its not good to use a 4 stroke on steep inclines, but if you are on
fairly
flat ground, go the Honda.

I need to replace my old Victa which has been cutting my lawn for over
25
years. Motor still goes well but the body has bits broken off around
the
skirt, and some of the grass is coming out of these gaps instead of
going
into the catcher.

I wanted to buy another Victa but when I looked at some models I
noticed
they are not as well built these days. I was put off when I saw things
like
the wire brackets holding the front axel on. I also thought the
galvanised
panel bolted underneath in front of the blade disk looked like a weak
part.

Can anyone suggest a well built mower, preferably 2 stroke.

Thanks
Ken
