So this is how far I had to strip the engine down to be able to get at that one bolt behind the starter dog and this is why I hate this lawnmower.

Did you have to remove the bag of Wainwright's dog food, too?

But.....
When it breaks it is fixable, so that's why I love it.
Has it ever crossed your mind that you'd have been better keeping the original one?
They are all original ones.

Just so that you know I'm not making it up, the second post in the linked thread refers to a starter dog.
Now I don't know how I know it's called a dog, It's just something I must have learned at some point in my life, but now I want to find out why it's called that, and the internet doesn't know.

Are you suggesting that I, a taxpayer, tell Google how to do it's job?

I didn't understand your link either Geo, I thought it would lead to an explanation of the starter dog origin but all I could see was an invitation to create wiki page.
I think we've whooshed each other mate.

Aaaah, I see. don't know whether I copied and pasted the link incorrectly but should lead to a page explaining where the engineering phrase of Dog came from:
in engineering, a dog is a tool or part of a tool that prevents movement or imparts movement by offering physical obstruction or engagement of some kind. It may hold another object in place by blocking it, clamping it, or otherwise obstructing its movement. Or it may couple various parts together so that they move in unison – the primary example of this being a flexible drive to mate two shafts in order to transmit torque. Some devices use dog clutches to lock together two spinning components. In a manual transmission, the dog clutches, or "dogs" lock the selected gear to the shaft it rotates on. Unless the dog is engaged, the gear will simply freewheel on the shaft.
This word usage is a metaphor derived from the idea of a dog (animal) biting and holding on, the "dog" name derived from the basic idea of how a dog jaw locks on, by the movement of the jaw, or by the presence of many teeth. In engineering the "dog" device has some special engineering work when making it – it is not a simple part to make as it is not a simple bar or pipe, and the metal used in its construction is likely to be special rather than regular steel.
There is potential for confusion as "dog tensioners" are levers that are named due to the shape of the lever appearing as a dog leg, as the lever is in a pantograph arrangement, or "dog trailers", which are named due to the use of multiple trailers for transporting animal cages.

For some reason, the correct link does not copy, not sure why.

That's perfect Geo, thank you.

We met a little girl carrying a crippled child and begging for money. We gave her a few rupees which was taken from her by an adult as soon as he thought I wasn't looking.
The next day we bought him an ice cream instead, which of course meant that we had to buy all the kids an ice cream.
