Default Youtube is amazing.

It has become my "go to" search engine. The things you'll find on youtube, once you get past grumpy cats, laser chasing kitties, puppies opening gifts and teen girls giving make up tips...

there is some amazing opportunities to learn things, which can save and make you money as well as simplify your searches.

Thanks for the reminder.

I did a search on google for my mower make and drive cable.

On the first page of results, the number 2 organic spot was a youtube video titled "Lawn Mower Traction Control Cable Replacement."

Well, how about them bananas? I could have probably figured it out on my own (being a bit of a handyman already), but I figured what the hell, i might as well watch it. Maybe I will learn something new.

Low and behold, I did learn a small something, AND at the end of the video, they mentioned the link in the description to buy the part.

Boom. Click. Add to cart. Pay. Done.

$25 and a week later I receive the part shipped to me and go about replacing it on my mower (took all of 5 minutes).

And that, friends, is the beautiful power of the internet, especially in the power of videos on the internet.

I now will give a 5 star rating to RepairClinic.com

2835 videos on their youtube channel.
