Default Small Engines Mechanics course

Hi everyone, looking for a small engines mechanic course. I've looked at SAIT, OLDS and around the city and can't find anything. Anyone know where I can take one? Hands on would be preferred but online is a good start. Thx.

Go to the Library , get a few different Motor manuals , and then go to the dump or someplace they have old Lawn mowers take home two or 3 , Tare them apart and put them back together . THERE FOR HANDS ON LEARNING But seriously in middle school thats how we learnt and even into High school .

I even rebuilt my mother's Craftsmen , lawn mower and did a little tweeking , and it even has a cool mufler on it , sounds like a chain saw but its a lawn mower ,

Try Fairview College or maybe Lakeland College. I know Fairview has one for motorcycle mechanics.. but I'm not sure if they have one specifically for small engines. Good Luck

I came from a small town, no such things as classes like that in school.

I'll give those a shot. It's not for a career or anything, just I am trying to be a better farmer

Search the net for a manual called,"small air cooled engines" by Intertec. If it's just to hone up your own skills this manual will help. Have fun.
