</font><font color="blue" class="small">( The most important thing of all to remember is that this mower is 18 years old. I imagine the engine has about 1000 hour on it. That's a lot for a lawn mower engine. The engine has outlived two starter motors and a transaxle.)</font>
<font color="red"> 18 years is not all that long, and 1000 hours of service isn't much! My Power King tractor has only had a head gasket, a carburetor needle, and a few batteries replaced in 30 years, and landscapers in the warm states may run their mowers for nearly 2000 hours per year for several years!
Actually I wouldn't recommend a Dixon if it ate two starter motors and a transaxle in less than 1000 hours!!
