Hi Mick, interesting video. It would be interesting to find out how you fix the E start. I have the same mower and my starter has never worked. I haven't got the original battery but I tried it using a external battery but it said nothing. It would be nice to get it working?
Best regards Steve from Germany.

I like the designs and engineering involved in the English mowers but like the American style mowers more when I watch you work through pulleys and tensioners.

I’m doing a part restore of a Balmoral 17s too Mick. Just dismantled the cutting cassette and am de-rusting and painting the cylinder and bottom blade. Would love to watch the pulley replacement and the cowl off work. Cheers buddy. 👍🏼

Just a quick question on the grass comb. The 17SE I'm working on at the moment has an adjuster for the height of the comb. At the highest level it is above the level of front roller. Do you think Atco did this to make it easier to switch from blade to scarifier and back again or do you think they expected everyone to remove the comb?

Hi Mick, Really appreciate your videos. I have a small shop and some of your videos have saved me a great deal of aggravation at times.
A quick question though: Why is it that most of the mowers in the UK have rollers on the back instead of wheels.

Hi Mick do you have any service kits or needle valve seal etc for this type of carb please? link in exchange for a wish list item please.
