Will it run after 20+ years? Victa utility 160cc 

theres nothing like hearing an old victa roar into life for the first time i have had that pleasure a few times

The old girl ran well once you got it running,and it handled that long grass nicely, and she would appreciate a new set of blades 😉 👍

great to see you back Joe mate i hope your not affected by the floods in Wagga Wagga New South Wales.

Good to see you back mate,,Saving those great old Victas.

My Mum bought one in 1978, only the base rusted away about 10 years ago, never gave any trouble.

Good to see an upload from you mate!

Welcome Back mate. I hope you had a alright break. After watching all your videos I started to fix and sell lawnmowers. Mainly flat head Briggs and Stratton ones. I can’t wait to see more videos

Good to see you back, rate an old victa 👍

Nice to see you mate, it's been a while. That utility certainly got a good wake up after being sat idle for so many years, it did the job very well considering...

Neat old Victa, very satisfying to watch!

As an American, I've always wondered why Austrailian lawn mowers have pivoting blades mounted on a center wheel as opposed to the flat iron, bar-shaped blade like mowers here have. I wonder what the performance difference is between the two designs. I'll be honest that tiny little two stroke mower performed better in that tall grass then my modern Lawn Boy mower did in the same type of grass. I'd love to see a competition between one of these old Victas and an old 2 stroke Lawn Boy. The old ones with the offset front wheel.

It done a great job mate

These old 2 stroke victas make a way more pleasant sound than the new 4 stroke mowers. Even sounds quieter

Welcome back mate! Missed you're post's!!

That thing just powers through that long grass

Would like to see it with new blades

Go the old Victa! Don't see you being able to do that with a fantastic plastic battery mower.

How many hours have I spent behind one of those? Nice mower - they don't make them like that any more.

All good, well done 👍

I'd like to see a how a flathead Briggs handles the same length grass.

cleaning one of these up at the moment , then I will do the same to my earlier 125cc one

How is possible that it's ripping through tall wet grass so easily. Did you sharpen the blades prior?

Every single one of those two stroke mowers should be saved. The 4 stroke ones usually lack the torque for the thick australian grass which is very annoying. Some wer good though, like the Kirby Tecumsehs or the 1980s Briggs on the Rover mowers, but other than that it´s victa two strokes all the way!

my filming of the mowing is actually so slay

A great mower

Ha junkyarddog87 , Wayne here . Would you happen to have a coil for one of these machines . I have a edger with no spark . Thanks buddy Wayne .

Great to see you back, you certainly put that old victa through its paces and it did well. How are you getting on with the mini moke ? Good video 🙂👍
