It sux about your lawnmower. I've always wondered what would happen if you took one of those 5HP go karts and swapped in a 21 HP engine of one of those big lawn mowers. That prolly more power than the go kart could ever handle.

oh man i just got scared that we lost a civic on here lol. it still sucks that the lawnmower threw a rod. i remember having to take apart a lawnmower and put it back together in high school auto shop. good luck, just more work to pay for that fix. you still have a full summer to make it up.

never seen a lawnmower throw a rod, take some pics of that man....

It didnt really throw it thru the block, but you can hear the snapped rod clinging in the motor.

Hate to hear it man, especially with it costing so much too. How old is the mower?

Yup. Its called a Sulky. Those things are wicked fun. I can get my mower up to 10 mph or so. We have a guy named Jose working for us........he does the weed wackin and stuff......we just ride the mowers.....we do a 3/4 acre house in like 15 mins or so......in and out.
