Restoration of a Cheap $400 scag zeroturn mower! 

Part 2 m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A3baWKDVrhM.html Part 3 m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dFr4Qx5Z8ro.html

Definitely glad the RU-vid algorithm popped this up. I actually enjoy rebuilding old old broken mowers. Definitely funny whenever it shocked you because it happened to me on my ex mark that I’m rebuilding lol definitely pissed me off🤣

Just found your channel this morning. I like your style I’m 60 years old and still love to do the same things you’re doing.

Got my 52 inch scag for $350. It ran but was in rough shape. Deck had rust holes in the front, it had sat for 5 years straight. I brought it back to life and it’s still my best mower. I have brand new mowers and still the 52 is my go to everyday mower.

Bought a used 62" 287L Toro back in 2010 for $1750. Kept it and rebuilt it and fixed it. Then used it for 11 years and made good money with it part time. Still have it to mow my own yard.

Really like the scag restore or more like this because I’m in the market for a used mower

You've got an absolute steal for $400 if all is well and sorted Given it's worth multiple times price you paid But unfortunately Sellers are Not always forthcoming so Best of luck mate.👍🙏

Love this video

Boat brought me here. Stayed for the mower! Subscribed

Im a commercial landscaper and a Scag is the best mower ive used by far. It doesn't skip in high grass and its fast. You can cut at top speed if u want

That’s awesome! I’m super jealous too; I’ve got 3 scag mowers and I wish I owned one like this! Keep up the good work!

Awesome find!

1k subscribers already! Your doing something right! Keep it up bro when I can't be outside working on projects I like watching someone do it.

Love the restoration content!

Perfect example of "you dont need new". Great content will follow for sure. If you have skill and want to learn .. deals are out there apperently

Came across your channel today. You're great. I watched all your videos and subscribed😊. I myself inherited a 1994 stratos boat that I will be redoing this summer. I love restoration videos. They seem to do good on youtube. My son wants me to start a channel, but I'm not very talkative when I work. Lol. Keep them coming🫡

Just keep restoring whatever you are into. Maybe the more random, the better. The views and new subscribers will be the proof in the pudding.

Thats not really bad, I've seen commercial ones that the paint worn off and they have nothing left salvageable on them

Ahh finally found a use for that 11/32 socket 😂

Nice videos!

Not being there, kind a looks likes you have no spark on the left cylinder. Trace that ignition back and you'll find the problem I'm sure... I'd say you still got a great deal in my opinion. Thumbs Up!

I have a brand new Honda 630 engine for it. 😊😊😊😊

I’m amazed at how little you paid for this ZT. I’m teaching myself small engine work and have a lot of free or very low money equipment to work on and flip. I’ve recently decided to learn all I can about zero turns. Around here I rarely see any for sale for low money and none free. Could you please tell us the exact circumstances surrounding this machine? How did you find it and why was the price so low?

Score!

l just found your channel, love the mower content. I have a Skag mower dealer in my town, but I don't know if they are any good. I'll keep watching. A little less music please.

It's funny that you call that an old mower. I think of an old mower as something at least pre 1980. Also $400 is basically giving that thing away. Can't believe you found it that cheap.

That mower is not that old. Don’t step on the deck.

RH shock mount at 10:20 bent? to the right of the battery.

Hey man I'm looking for a ENGINE for my scag 52" lat me know

Hello

Either lying or its stolen. That mower, in that condition, would sell for $3k easy.

I buy a broken zero turn fix it use it all year sell it next year and buy another repeat. Done it for about 8 years now.

Why not power wash before you start? lot better to work on clean parts!!!

12k for a new one in 2023 that's for gas I think the diesel was pushing 20k

did you set the valve lash?

Good topic but the music is so distracting - spoils it.

You spend too much time camera work panning over the engine in the mower and stuff just show it once and that's it

Amateur 😂😂😂

Not everything is a "barn find" just because you've seen popular videos with that in the title.

Use a thermo heat gun "infrared" and check exhaust pipe temp. Or a crayon, candle, all will keep you from getting the crap shocked out of you.

I literally just did this with a 14 tiger cat 52. I paid 2500 for it cleaned it up spent 200 in new parts like grips sticker deck guard etc and sold it for 4900. A very good mower for sure
