What a treat!! A genuine two stroke, 21" aluminum deck Lawn Boy lawn mower. Model R7268. Scary old "Pre-safety compliance" mower right from the dump. (Better stay alert!!). I didn't even know it was a two cycle. I just pulled the cord after a shot of ether and: "Hey, this thing sounds weird!!" I had to dismantle the carburetor (a PLASTIC carb?! yep.) and clean it, but it runs pretty well now and as a 2-cycle, it sounds uniquely cool. Lots of fun. Based on the SN, it has an interesting F-100 engine. I always liked the asymmetric Lawn Boy design... Reminds me of the funky, experimental Blohm and Voss aircraft of the 1940's.
It didn't want to stop easily, but you need not see such embarrassing moments on video. I'll fix later.
