Early this year I bought three (well, actually more like 2-1/2) non-running Gravely walkbehinds from a friend. I got one going earlier, a model L, but it smoked so bad that I figured I'd spend some time with the LI before putting anything into it. Besides, it ran so fast I that I didn't think it would be very suitable for heavy mowing and garden work. So, I've been working on this LI and this weekend got it running. I was happy that it had good oil pressure, didn't blow smoke, and everything seems to work. I need to get the governor hooked up yet and swap for some un-bent handlebars from one of the other units but it is looking like I'll have a very handy machine when it is complete. I've been intrigued by these machines ever since picking up a brochure for the new ones 20+ years ago and it is neat to finally have one to use.
