The majority of the people who bring their mowers in are from Newark, and most of them are repeat customers, Benjamin Postles, agricultural club secretary, said. You can't go to a shop and get this done. Friday night, Postles, a three year-veteran of the event, held a refresher course for the mower mechanics. It's pretty basic stuff. All of the mowers get the same kind of oil, and we clean the air filters rather than replace them.
Spark plugs are the only things that vary.
Some mowers, especially ones that are very old or have not been well maintained, are not as easily revived. That is not to say that every old mower is beyond repair. It appears that a little TLC is the secret to lawnmower longevity. They got it running, so I told them they could have it because I had already bought a new one. I understand that they use it to do some of the trimming around the building.
