      Tim, it's been quite a journey. When I think back in who I used to be to who God has made me today it truly is unbelievable the change. I'm eternally grateful for everything the Lord has done for me. He truly did bring me out of spiritual Egypt. God bless you and thank you for your kind words.

    That Murray was made by Husqvarna and rebranded as Murray . Murray went out of business. Many years ago but Briggs bought the brand name and has other mfg make mowers and stick a Murray sticker on it and also have control over what engine is put on it. But they still have some Honda engines on them for options to customers at a increased price

    • @gregsmowersandmore5878
      @gregsmowersandmore5878  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's interesting. I never knew Murray went out of business. I figured it probably had a newer Briggs on it at some point that was swapped to the Honda. I remember when Murray was one of the cheapest no frills mowers you could buy at Walmart lol. They were pretty good back then with the flathead Briggs engine though. Thank you for sharing that knowledge and also for watching my video. May God bless you.

      @@gregsmowersandmore5878 yah briggs acquired the brand name in 2004 and 2005 closed Ohio Mfg and basially outsourced the mfg of gas powered equipment to Husqvarna and MTD (Troybilt). now Murray is just a rebranded Ningbo Daye Garden Machinery out of China. the deck quality is about the same as MTD but parts are much harder to find.

    I assumed it is a re-engined Murray fitted with a Honda engine from a Husqvarna lawn mower. I think it's original Briggs and Stratton engine have been badly damaged from the impact of a hard object.

    Hey Greg, Audio needs improvement, if I had your email or a way to DM you, I'd shoot you a link to a wireless lavalier set I use on my channel fixing mowers (not this acct). It's a world of difference on audio quality 😊 (and they're very inexpensive!)
    These little engines are great fun to work on.
    As for sheared blade adapters, I've got a Husqvarna Weed Eater lawnmower and I clipped a stone, which sheared the tits off the adapter.. it was hilarious when I found out after, because the blade was still spinning after I shut off the mower!
    I was absolutely howling in laughter at it

      Demcomp, thank you for the offer. My email is gregjoyce449@gmail.com. I'm not sure how much good it'll do though. All my videos are shot on my cell phone. Google Pixel 8 pro and edited on my phone as well I don't have a laptop or any of the stuff and I'm not well versed in anything like that as far as uploading and editing on anything other than my phone. I do the best I can given the circumstances but my audio is constantly changing with animals, birds, people,trains,cars etc. I'm definitely willing to try and learn something new though as long as I can use my phone to do it. I've seen a few with the pins broke off the blade adapters. It definitely makes for some interesting noises and vibration lol. Thank you so much for offering your help and for watching. God bless.
