Hey Chris there is a shop on Ringgold road right by First Tennessee bank I used to live right by it and they fix mowers i bet u can fix it cheaper then buying a new one.. if you buy a new one walmart is a good place for a solid mower i spent 180 bucks on a poulan pro with the big back tires and it is really nice..I think they self propelled was around 200.. My yard is flat so didnt need the self propelled..
