I can of course change oil and spark plugs and things like that, but this time we needed new blades, it wasn't starting for some reason related to the wiring, etc so I figured why not get it all done at once. Plus they have a special every year this time and it's free pickup and delivery so that makes life easy, ha. 1st Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04861609647607912193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-90196178126149100352017-03-12T23:41:42.079-05:002017-03-12T23:41:42.079-05:00Babette, love it!
