Looking for F series Lawn Boy parts, new or used
Comments (3)Well, after a few dozen E-mails, I finally located a reasonably priced short block. So it looks like I won't have to break out the ol' JB Weld. On a side note, the JB Weld really does work. I fixed an old BS 4-stroke with it and then ran it for four years. It was still running strong when I sold it. I just don't think there's much stress on the "weld" since it's on the side of the cylinder. All it has to do it stay in place. Granted, I prepped it well (acetone, then heat prior to epoxy). Anyway, if all goes well, I'll have the old LB up and running in a week or so... Maybe I'll repaint the deck while I'm waiting on the short block to arrive. I hear the "Grabber Green" is a dead-on match....See Morelawn boy m series

Comments (16)"Curiouser and curiouser. We have read for years on here that the 16:1 was because of bushings rather than roller bearings, now it's no longer true. Okay, then what is the reason for 16:1 (I have no idea why I care, since I will never own one)?" You will note that I say the BOTTOM bushing. The D400 had needle bearings on the top end. The switch in mix spec came when they went to the 2 ring piston AND the needle bearings on the wrist pin end of the connecting rod, perhaps this was the bushing others were referring to which you may have misinterpreted. These parts can be interchanged and I have done it often only the connecting rod with needle bearings on the wrist pin end must be used with the 2 ring piston. As for never owning one, reminds me of someone I know who says he will never own a Ford. Surely most people know that the bottom bushing continued thru the D600 series which used 32:1 mix and all of these LBs had the mix written on them though in early years it was a decal which eventually became illegible. Some had the mix molded into the shroud. I would note that there is a difference between "needle bearings" and "roller bearings". LB, until DuraForce, used needle bearings unless it was the "M" with which I am not familiar. As I have said before on this and other lists, if you are uncertain what mix you should use, clean your exhaust ports and while you are at it, count how many rings are on the piston as you look thru the clean exhaust ports. Three rings = 16:1, 2 rings = 32:1. Walt Conner...See Moreechoman
