A trip to the auction

[ATC1983]

Went to an auction today and bought:

 

1 piano: £90

Victorian picture of King Killy - tenner

 

and

 

Qualcast 14 or 17 - £18. Think it's missing the starter cord - it's got a little wheel on the right hand side which turns, and I'm assuming the cord goes around this?

 

5hp Tiller - £25. Got it started earlier, retails at £195, so a real bargain to do basic rotavation.

 

A good day and feeling happy with myself.

 

If anyone knows anything about the qualcasts (heard a guy saying they were for bowling greens, tennis courts - which is the reason why I bought) and how to get them going I'd be most grateful.

Where abouts are you?

 

They can be a pain if it hasn't been started in a while. Clean the fuel bowl, ensure its getting fuel dwn the pipes. And check for spark. Oh and don't forget to hold the lever in, or you will be chasing it across the yard.
