No. I went to HomeDepot and saw new ones with 4 stroke engines. Stricter regulations are eliminating the two strokes.

Since you are a Yahoo user, why not try the Yahoo Yellow Pages:

Look for "lawnmower repair". There should be several choices.

Good luck with your search.

Price: $26.99 $29.99

Push mower, beads pop as you push
Clicking key and moveable throttle
Kids can open the tethered gas cap and pretend to fill up the lawn mower

There should be some sort of lever/switch - If it isnt working, then most likely the disengage cable is 'seized' and needs freeing up/replacement.

I have a lawn boy 5hp pupsh mower that is extremely hard to start. I had another one given to me because the owner gave up on it because it was so hard to start.
Does anyone have any tips on how to start easier?

Try changing the spark plug, and check all the wires, to make sure there is not something loose. Also, the carb. could be defective, and you are not getting enough fuel, to start it. I always go to the spark plug first, and just put a new one in there, as they are easy to change. The best lawnmower out there is the honda. I use them commercially, and they are the best.

Can you give me some advice

Few things are more frustrating than a lawn mower that refuses to turn over, no matter how hard you pull on its cord or curse its ancestry. More likely than not, your balky engine is suffering from fuel troubles—either too much, too little, or too old. Before you haul it to a shop to be fixed, try trouble�shooting the problem yourself.

1. Make sure there's gas in the tank. If not, add some.

2. Give it a rest. An engine that's getting gas and not starting probably has a flooded carburetor or cylinder soaked with gasoline. Often your nose can make the diagnosis: Flooded engines reek of unburned fuel. Park the mower on level ground, and wait about 15 minutes for the gas to evaporate. Then try starting it again, with the choke off.

3. Freshen the fuel. If the engine starts and quickly stalls out, the gas may have gone bad from sitting around too long. Siphon out the tank, and add new gas. Take the old stuff to a hazardous waste recycler; dumping it anywhere else is illegal.
