I must admit I did not mend mine as I thought it was a horrible thing so I sold it as a non runner. It went to Poland and I thought it was the best place for it to go.

A quick search has informed me that there are 160 species of grass in Poland but only 16 of which are suitable for lawns.
(For some reason I didn't think they had lawns out there so a non working mower would feel quite at home.) Razz

I can't see if it has been mentioned but if so apologies but have you got the right plug? Many Briggs use a very short reach and will lock up on the wrong plug.

Yes, it's the same plug as I was using all last summer. I looks fine.
