not to bust your bubble, but I don't see small engines as being in your best interest as a future. To many toxic chemicals for you, and to much heavy lifting in your health.. How do you expect to get a roto-tiller up on a bench to work on it?
Have you considered doing computer mechanics? You have a working knowledge of computers, there are much fewer toxic chemicals and fewer tools while having much less heavy lifting. There are just as many "free" to practice on and more people have computers than have lawn mowers.
Salt Lake Community College has a course on computer repair in their School of Applied Technology. I would think with your disabilities that you could get financial aid to cover most of the costs, and a PELL grant to cover books and tools.
The SAT (School of Applied Technology) also has a very flexible schedule that could be tailored so that time missed would not count against you as well as a job placement service to help you get a job.
Just a suggestion.
