Our sturdy old Briggs & Stratton lawnmower finally gave up the ghost. We bought an expensive new Craftsman but it didn't perform as well. We really wanted to get the B&S repaired. Luckily, there is an amazing little old-school repair shop in Federal Way - JDK Small Engine Repair. Turns out we had a broken drive shaft. It took a few weeks to get it back, but our little lawn buddy started right up and the engine sounds amazing. Keep it in mind if you have a gizmo with a small engine that needs some TLC in the spirit of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle!
