It must have been a slip of the tongue…

I bought it off Marketplace! Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt nice because back a year ago I had the same one and gave it to someone on marketplace in Bentleigh vic

@@JRPlayz9743 nice, this one cosmetically is how I bought it! Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt ok

Because I put a new carburettor face plate on it then gave it away

Hi Mate, thanks for the feedback! My floor jack whilst low profile is the 3T variant, thus is a little higher than the smaller low profile jacks, however I just like the extra strength of it! Having said that I think it will just scrape under the Mazda without the low profile ramps but then you have trouble seeing exactly where you are putting the jack! Cheers Drew

Hi Gary, thanks for the comment and the inspiration to keep making these videos that emphasise safety first! Cheers Drew

I certainly don’t have much trouble getting them to start easily! Cheers Drew

Nice, it certainly got a lot of responses and I was surprised at how quickly it sold! Cheers Drew

Thanks for the support! Cheers Drew 🙏

Hi Mate, yes I do tend to use ceramic pads as much as I can. Unfortunately this was one of my earlier videos and you are correct I didn't put a link on their ... I will see if I can look up the correct pads and put a link on their for you! Cheers Drew

Hi Mate, the link in the description of the video works fine for me: amzn.to/3dxjBUJ Cheers Drew

Hi Mate, the Front Diff is exactly that a differential at the front of the vehicle between the two front wheels whereas the transfer case is used to connect the transmission to both the rear differential and the front differential. I think with these the most common issue with the transfer case is the chain stretching and I am unaware of any common issues at all with the differentials in these vehicles! Cheers Drew

Do you want me to make a TikTok to make it clearer? Cheers Drew

Ahh thanks Gary, ya know I just really like fixing things that are broken across the board and always have. The channel kinda fell into cars and lawnmowers but that was really by accident! I think I’m gonna start working on a VICTA powered go kart next I think, which will be a lot of fun and hopefully interesting for viewers! Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt Victa Aircraft? LOL.

@@garymarkham4167 I tell you what, you find me a VICTA aircraft and I will give it a crack too! Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt Yes it is enjoyable to see how things work and can be repaired.I was given a Dyson DC4..the head was absolutely clogged with stuff...Took it apart,cleaned and gave it to someone in need.!

Hi Stephen, yes they are absolutely amazing machines and I do agree with you those tin bases are actually the weak link!! If you liked this you might like this playlist of me getting old mowers back into service, where most of them are Victa 2 strokes: ruclips.net/p/PLor5qdyoV_nT_C59fkQM6tZia44AQ9XQz&si=mNf25NsYWwcomA0n Cheers Drew

Hi Peter, thanks for the comment! I honestly am not 100% certain about if it has a inbuilt charging system, however this is something that I did wonder when I got the mower as it certainly didn’t come with a portable charger. Now, there is no visible spot to plug a portable charger in so I suspect it is somehow charging whilst it runs … with respect to the diode from memory it looked like it was connected to the coil, so I think what is happening is it charging the battery from a standard VICTA 2 stroke coil as they don’t require any external power to operate normally as a coil, however what the diode could be doing is acting as a crude rectifier… effectively converting a AC voltage from the coil winding to a DC voltage to charge the battery. What I should do is make another video, where I test the voltage at the battery once the engine is running to see if it is charging or not … is this something that you would like to see? Cheers Drew

Haha Mark, I love your work!! I reckon the Yoga mat is right up there in the same level of priority (and usage) as the treadmill that I bought her … that she had to have … and I nearly forgot, that she was going to use daily 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Cheers Drew

You're welcome! Cheers Drew

Hi Magnus, if it was my car I would: 1/ Stop driving the car immediately and 2/ Perform a transmission service exactly as I have demonstrated. This will allow you to clean the sludge and sub micron particles from the pan, put a new filter in (which must be blocked and restricting flow), get some new fluid in and set the level correctly. It’s important to service it as I say without delay because right now driving it as is causing damage. With that being said I will attempt to answer “some” of your questions. The transmission and transfer case do not share the same fluid. Depending upon the variant of your transmission (low friction or not) they may or may not have the same fluid specification. Now, in my case as I explained in this video I have chosen to run a Australian made Penrite transmission fluid which meets all of the MB specifications but if I couldn’t get this particular fluid in my car I would’ve had the traditional blue fluid in the transmission and red in the transfer case. So, as I said above if it were my car I would do the transmission service without delay and then I would probably do it again in 6 to 12 months time again! I hope that this helps? In the meantime … Stor Stark Tack … Cheers Drew

@DrewFixIt Thanks Drew! Agree fully to not drive more with a car in these conditions! We just went out for a holiday trip when all this began. So have in fact driven about 1500 km since... but careful...Good idea to make another service after 6 months, hopefully it will save the machine! Ok, then I understand, they didn't took the crazy route with sharing fluid at least! Will write the outcome here later! Skål!

Thanks Mat! You do know if you “join” as a member of the channel I give early access to videos so that they can see them as soon as I upload them!! Cheers Drew

Great to hear and glad it helped! Cheers Drew

Thanks Mate!! My goal with these videos is to make them as accurate and detailed enough to do the job but explaining as simply as I can at the same time, so your comment is really welcoming!! Thanks Drew

lol, it really is that easy!! Cheers Drew

Hi Charlie, Thanks for the compliment and great pickup on the original part number in the description! As a little channel I do everything myself on the side to a demanding day job so the extra eyes on things like this is actually really appreciated :) I have updated the description to have the OEM part number as: A6421540402 Cheers Drew

Hi Mate, good to hear! Are these keepers for you or are you looking to offload them? Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt keepers mate

Please do mate! You know I will give anything a crack to get it to run!!! Cheers Drew

they are riveted on

Hi Gary, great to hear from you!! Yes I not only need a decent bench but also a decent shed/workshop to put it in!!! To answer your question, yes there is a hole in the front of the spark plug protector and there is a pop-rivet in the hole which keeps the spark plug protector in place! Cheers Drew

Oh never mind it work good to cause the break lever got wet and dry it it work now it pulls me up hill I use a 12 ga soild wire perfect
