Sep 27, 2008 I have Flymo mower Model GL 47 about 20 years old It has always difficult to start but now it's impossible It has a magneto ignition but does not seem to have a condenser which my neighbour says it must have in otder to get a good fat spark Could this be the life-long problem I've had with it or is there something else I'm missing.Cannot get parts however now living in NZ and with some local.

- V Power - Flymo Pilot L47. Reply Reply Author. Original Poster. Wednesday 6th June 2007. I keep a gallon of fuel in the boot just in case of emergencies.
- Hi all I have inherited an old flymo l47 pilot which is anon starter. I really know very little but would love to be able to get it going it had and was advertised with a broken pull start which even i could manage to sort out.

I keep a gallon of fuel in the boot just in case of emergencies, one of which cropped up when mowing the lawn at the weekend.
Topped the trusty flymo up with V Power, pulled the rope and the instant acceleration was terrific. Ride height is increased and as a result the handling is much sharper.
As I have one of the rare HC Pilot L47 I guess the performance is always going to be better than the standard models, plus the note on the over run when you have finished the lawn is great - the neighbours appreciated it.
May have to look at a Cherry Bomb conversion and stealth cam now for the ultimate high speed mowing experience.

Such was the increased power that most of it was moved vertically, to be spread for many meters around.

I only had V Power to top up the lawn mower when we moved and it did pop and bang a bit.

I put Tesco 99 in my Triumph Sprint yesterday and it doesn't run very cleanly at all and pops and bangs even more than usual with the sports exhaust. In the Chim it seems fine. V Power still seems the best all round though.

Bet its a yellow (ok, ok, orange) Flymo . Obviously THE fastest colour for lawn mowers. Would take you ages to cut the lawn if it was blue, red or silver

Blue mowers are quite plainly the fastest!Flymo L47 Pilot Manual Review

It is actually grubby orange, however I do have some Imperial Blue touch up paint that I will be applying this weekend as speed stripes.
I thought I would also paint some of the engine parts purple as the considered opinion is that this adds about 30% to top end speed !

Thanks Al,
I was beginning to think the forum needed some frivolity.
