Description

Heres one for the tinker/small engine collector.........This '60's-era Jacobsen was used by the Parks and Rec. Dept., and then found a good home with a retired employee. I bought the mower with the intent of restoring it, but I am just up to my chin in snow blower repairs so this great old mower has to go. If it doesn't sell, I'll deal with it in the spring. It has great compression, hot spark, and minor paint loss. I will include a can of spray paint for the buyer to complete the build. I haven't tried to start it beyond giving it a sip of fuel and pulling the rope....it barked but I did NOT have it running for any length of time.....I suspect the carb could use a kit. The only number I found is 205117 on the block, and LMB-I-74 on the Walbro carb....which has the push-up drain on the float bowl. Great project for the heated garage owner....
