    Commercial grade walk behind Bunton. Company was bought by BobCat as I under stand now.
    It has a 44 or 48 inch deck, 14hp manual start Kohler engine and the reason it is now mine.
    I have had to work on it before to get it to start the former owner is a run them dry guy with nothing in the fuel. In every case I have had to remove the float bowl and free up the valve and seat which had the float stuck.

    I finally got him to use stabuil in it, but of course if a little (per the bottle label.) is good more is better. Then you incounter a sand like substance that clogs up the filter and valve in seat.

    He only used it a couple times a year since 2006 to mow paths along side the rented out field and thru the woods where he can't get his compact Ford and brush hog.

    That's what I need to poke into my overgrown treeline. Trying to maintain a buffer strip of mowed ground along my property lines has proven difficult! Enjoy.

    I need to go rescue my brush hog from where it was parked when I sold the farm.
