CAN I REVIVE THIS VINTAGE SNAPPER I LEFT FOR DEAD 6 YEARS AGO? 

Sweet Do you watch JimJacksonFixItShop? I had one delivered a few years ago. Bought if for couple hundred. I knew it was toast or close to it. But they guys went on about how great it is. And I'm like yeah it worth this price. even if it's almost broken. I limped it along for about a year and a half. Then did motor swap from late 70s early 80s. Because the chain or the gear broke in the case wasn't gonna look cause those parts can be couple hundred dollars themselves. Plus taking off the hub ain't no joke on one of them.

ha. that mower was over $2000 before snapper shitcanned it.

@@non1503Jim Jackson is good for sure when it comes to working on mowers.

@@mrbubetube And a Yugo was $3995 a 27" TV was a thousand bucks, back in the 80's, I'm sure there's more Snapper's still running than Yugos and Sony Trinitrons

I got one for sale

I hear you, only someone who has delved into the rear engine Snapper, can truly appreciate them. They usually can be purchased for cheap. Keep on "SNAPPIN'EM UP"

You tighter the main mower drive belt buy lengthening that main center tube,

​@@cwdtransport2247Just bought a new belt, old one was cracked. Doesn't surprise me though, cause I did adjust slipping trans disc by slightly lowering engine's face pulley after doing a ring job. Crazy simple design

Or remove it and sand the shaft and motor oil it These are great old machines and will last 100 years if cared for and kept out of the weather

Yup, forgot to close it when I got this clip and didn't realize until after. Works great, I've used it a bit this summer

Is that AN hardware? That's why it won't thread on.

Ever hear of sarcasm? And in over my head? I used it all summer after this 🤣

It's still under construction and I lost two storage sheds in a storm this winter, so everything got dumped into the garage that was already full. It's getting cleaned up everyday and I'm building another shed this summer, a 30x21 pole barn made of steel water pipe and slab wood, which you'll also see on the channel.

LOL , mine is 1000% worse

@@REVNUMANEWBERN l second that, l even drew up a manifest of a floor plan so l knew where all those odd parts and items were located in my garage. Problem now, can't the paper, just kidding 😂

It's the mount for bagger

It's still under construction and I also lost all my storage sheds this winter in a storm. Once I get some storage space back it'll be spotless again!

Besides being old, what's specifically wrong with these mowers?

Nothing, were the best for reliability!

you mean breaks an scrap'em

​@@joshuaryanferguson3702No, an engine a "REAL" mechanic can re-ring and clean up the valves and have a like new engine. Their opposed engines were so superior to these ohv v twins 😂

@@tcmits3699 its called breaks an scrap'em cause they are completely trash

@@joshuaryanferguson3702 One man's trash is another man's treasure. You seem to fall in the category of "PARTS" changer not mechanic🤔

@@tcmits3699 nah i fall into a category of simplicity because of how garbage these things are an no one mans trash is not at all another man's treasure

Do it!
