I inherited a cheap "Lawn Boy" 10685 mower from previous homeowner (he left it in the garage) but the thing was pretty cooked. Used it at the beginning of summer, but it recently crapped out entirely. Couldn't get the engine to turn over at all. Did some research, and ordered some parts. I drained and replaced the oil, which was BLACK:  Check out the old air filter:  Replaced with:  Old carb:  New carb installed:  Rusty as hell ignition coil and spark plug I replaced.  When I got the whole thing put back together, I gave it a pull and it started, but it was revving VERY high and then going LOW. Also, was blasting blue/white smoke from muffler. I later realized that the governor spring was stuck on a fuel line clamp. Once I freed that up and adjusted the carb screw, it started running just fine. It starts on 1 pull... but now I have to mow the lawn again!  edit: spelling betterinsodapop fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Aug 12, 2019 |

My father-in-law asked me if I could get his snowblower to start up again. It's a Toro CCR 2400 GTS, which has a 2 cycle Briggs & Stratton engine. I was thinking just order and install a new carburetor kit and a new spark plug, drain the gas and replace with fresh gas. Does that seem like a good place to start?
