Will this old 2 stroke Victa run again? Let’s find out!
Yes it still needs some finishing off, she’s either running lean or has an air leak. This one will be revisited.

An old Victa utility bought at a garage sale for $10 will it run? The guy I got it off says his dad rebuilt it over 20 years ago, it had a little use and got put away, going by the age of the guy that sold it to me I don’t think it would have been possible to ask his dad about it. Enjoy anyways peps!

    Good job mate I’ve only started working on these So far I’ve got two to run but seems like air gets in as it revs it’s guts out then stalls. Not getting enough fuel I suspect and air coming in is the culprit, you think so?

    As an American, I've always wondered why Austrailian lawn mowers have pivoting blades mounted on a center wheel as opposed to the flat iron, bar-shaped blade like mowers here have. I wonder what the performance difference is between the two designs. I'll be honest that tiny little two stroke mower performed better in that tall grass then my modern Lawn Boy mower did in the same type of grass. I'd love to see a competition between one of these old Victas and an old 2 stroke Lawn Boy. The old ones with the offset front wheel.

    I was just given a mower with an old gv400 honda engine on it. It had been torn apart more than a decade ago due to a no spark issue. My local auto parts store can get a set of points for it, but not a coil. I've been looking at the chinese ebay ones. I ended up ordering one of those cheap china ones because an OEM coil is just more expensive than i want to spend on this machine. Tha ks for giving me hope that the cheap coil from ebay might actually work!

    grouse work mate and yep horrible life factor when people don,t put oil in their fuel for the mixture and yep removing the muffler/exhaust is a key way to peek through without pulling the motor apart for sure like a Chainsaw for sure and according to Donyboy73 that is yep he has videos on those ones by comparison too and i hope the green one has something very minor with it etc.

    • @junkyarddog87
      @junkyarddog87 Před 3 měsíci

      It’s not leaking after a long run, gotta look at big picture things with where I get my stuff from, it could have been on its side, the oil was probably watered down with petrol from running so rich, there may be a small weep that shows up over time but it was dry after the second yard I finished with it earlier.

    good scores mate and yep that Honda Mower engine looks like a good one and yep a air filter replacement should fix that one up for sure and as for that original Briggs and Stratton 3.5HP (Horse Power) engine with the snapped crankshaft yep funny how people drill start theirs but yeah luckily do they know it,s a increased risk of snapping the crankshaft for sure and i always pull start than drill start as it makes all the difference for sure and even the ones normally at the upper handlebars for shoulder pull starting yep a optional one too etc.

    Every single one of those two stroke mowers should be saved. The 4 stroke ones usually lack the torque for the thick australian grass which is very annoying. Some wer good though, like the Kirby Tecumsehs or the 1980s Briggs on the Rover mowers, but other than that it´s victa two strokes all the way!
