We don't plan on getting it too fast at all. The main junk to it is the steering and the plastic body pieces which we have removed and used steel to strengthen it up. We plan on also changing out for a direct steering set up and putting a more solid front end on it. What is a recommended mower for this application?
The engine seems to be in awesome shape and I remember it being pretty quick and powerful when I use to live at home and mowed the lawn. Typically it was about getting done fast the getting scolded for leaving sections of the yard looking in poor shape.. LOL.
We know the battery is bad but thought we could jump it then ride it without the battery. The problem is as soon as the battery charger comes off, the fuel solenoid shuts and the engine dies. Don't want to run it with a battery but don't know if we can bypass the solenoid without adversely affecting the carbs performance.
