Panzerboy:

Went to Menard's today to check on the A/C I was telling you about. They are sold out. No suprise when you consider a brand new 5,000 BTU A/C for less the $60.00.

Went to Wally World down the highway from Menard's and found a few units (Demos.) for $75.00 that they were trying to clear out. With shipping, wouldn't make sense as you can probably buy them down there for that.

Looking around, I found a brand new 6 1/2 horsepower Tecumseh engine high wheel push lawnmower on clearance for $150.00. I bought it with the intention of replacing my old 3 1/2 horsepower Briggs engine on my old Snapper self-propelled lawnmower. I have the old Briggs running on a 20% engine honey (That is a thick lubricant with a long polymer for worn engines.) mix in the crankcase. It still burns enough oil to make walking behind it very bad for the lungs. An exact replacement Briggs would have set me back $260.00 and would have been a 5 horsepower. I am going to put the new Tecumseh engine on my Snapper, and put my brothers new 3 1/2 horsepower briggs which now sits on the cheapest lawnmower chassis made on the high wheel body of the new deck. I will have a new more powerful engine, he will have his new engine on a better lawnmower body with more features, and I will have saved $110.00. I pity the mechanically inept and I charge them through the nose for help (Unless they are family or friends, in which case I charge them twice as much because I know they are going to come back to haunt me. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)

Sorry I couldn't help you out.
