Offering on behalf of someone else so don't know it's history but it starts okay, Can't say say anything about how well it performs though. Would be suitable for small/medium garden. On the new equivalent model it says in the blurb that the blade needs to be tightened before each use so this may be the case with this one too. Something did sound a bit loose when I started it up.

Free: Petrol Lawnmower (CT5) Gifted Viking 2 petrol lawnmower. Is working but unreliable to start. I took it for service and was told carburetor needed replacing (this along with the full service would have been uneconomical to do, so tried making do for a while but drove me nuts getting it started in end so have replaced with battery mower). My brother said it was unlikely that carburetor needed fully replacing poss just diaphragm. Doesn't mean much to me but might to someone else who has a bit of engine knowledge. Bodywork is pretty sound with little rust and has had oil change. Any good to anyone? Not sure how old it is..... prob 5-10years. Could poss find manual if someone takes it. Collect from Chestfield
