Jim.  Master Mechanic.  Oooooooo.

Don't dislocate your shoulder patting yourself on the back!  Hard to hold the mug afterwards.

Changing A Clutch Lever - Is It Tough?

You disagree with my rating, Des?  I still say changing the clutch lever is a 1 on a scale of 0 - 10.  Changing the oil is a .5!

And yes!!  I feel like a master mechanic because I finally got the pinion gear off my B & G starter.  It only took me  a week!!  Whaddaya want?  BTW, still haven't got the durn lawn tractor running.

Jim's charges:
lawnmower mechanic - removing pinion gear from starter:
                                $40/ hr. X 40 hours = $1600.00

At this rate, I can soon retire! :motorsmile:

The whole job is a 1 on a scale of difficulty 1-10.


Where 1 is most difficult?  :stickpoke:

The only tough part of changing a lever is getting the tassles back on!!  :grin:

Hi

Just don't do what I did. Took of the clutch lever and doing so snapped the pin for the clutch switch.

All the best
