Picked up the mower last week from the shop. Had a pretty bad oil leak last season so took it in for major surgery, one spindle, 3 pulleys, drive belt ( replaced the mower belt last season ) pulled the engine replaced pan gasket and seals, new plugs, air, gas & oil filters, oil and valve adjustment. All OEM EX MARK and BRIGGS parts for $675 which I thought was reasonable. Ready for another 11 seasons !
