Purchased an old McLane (1977) that BARELY ran from an older couple out in Sun City. After messing around with it for a few hours, I decided to hit up Best Brothers for replacement choke linkage and a few carb gaskets. Long story short, I was sold the wrong parts, and lose $30.00, needless to say I won't be going back there.
Disheartened, I sought out help on the almighty Google, which lead me to Besco. Later that day I have Besco a call to see if they could help me out, I lady with a very nice voice answered the phone, informed me that they work on mowers like mine almost every day, was very straight forward and reasonable with the price quote for a tuneup AND also offer pickup and delivery.
Besco came out and picked my lawnmower up the very next day. I decided to swing by the shop to say hi to everyone and drop off a few extra parts I had laying around, the shop was easy to find, and everyone inside was very personable. After a few minutes of chatting with the gal up front, she had me come back and talk to Charlie.
Charlie greeted me with a smile, and asked what I was looking to have done on the mower besides the tune-up, I said "I want this thing to look and run like as if I bought it back in 1977.", Charlie let me know that the services required to make that happen were going to raise the price but that he can and will do it. Price ended up being a little extra, we shook hands and a week later Charlie calls me to let me know he's going to drop it off and that it runs perfectly now.
I'd like to also mention that I could not come down to the store to make my payment so Charlie willingly took the payment over the phone with my VISA information, seamless, ultra easy process.
And Charlie was right. This old 77' runs on the first pull every single time. The mower is powerful, cuts evenly, doesn't smoke, and most importantly, now has all the linkage it needs to run properly.
I highly recommend Besco Equipment Repair for all lawn mower/small engine repair needs. Charlie and his crew went above and beyond with this one, I can't speak highly enough of them.
Bottom Line: Worth every penny
