So after two days struggling with troubleshooting the old cultivator, I decided to give up. The place where I buy equipment said it would take 10 days for them to repair it. So I bought a brand new, shiny orange ECHO cultivator! It comes highly recommended, and after using it for two days, I love it. And it starts easily, as well! I am a happy camper!
So yesterday I worked on a patch of bare lawn and the machine dug down about 5 inches, turning up the soil. Then I raked over all the dirt until it was level again, and then I spread two bags of what they call "topsoil" over the ground - you can see that it is black in color.

Nice new toy that you deserved after 40 years with Sears machine. You have put a lot of work into your lawn. I hope it warms up so the grass grows and you see some results this Fall. It was only 45 when I awoke this morning. Had to close my windows. It is supposed to warm next week.

Glad to read that you bought a new cultivator. After 40 years, I think you got your moneys worth. Lot of work to seed your lawn but hope it works! betsey
Sometimes I think that growing a lawn is a fool's errand! :-)
