Tommy asked: I change the oil, spark plug, and filter regularly. What am I doing wrong? My last mower did the exact same thing. My current one is only 2 years old and is a Briggs and Stratton 5.0.
Would replacing the carb fix it?
I live in central Florida so I pretty much mow the lawn year round.

Abercrombie boyzz asked: I’m looking to buy a zero turn 42” lawnmower, money is not a concern. Which do you think is better Toro Time cutter Z, John Deere Z225, or the Cub Cadet RZT and why? Thanks for your help.

maddmatt316 asked: The handle of a 22 kg lawnmower makes a 33-degree angle with the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between lawnmower and ground is 0.62, what magnitude of force is required to push the mower at constant velocity? Assume the force is applied in the direction of the handle.

responder asked: I recently replaced my electric lawnmower blade, put everything back in right, and yet the mowed grass strip is lower on one side. I looked underneath my lawnmower and I see that that the hub is a little lop-sided, making the blade a little lop-sided. Should I just continue to use it the way it is? It works fine otherwise.
I tilted the lawnmower, and turned the blade a few revolutions, and it is circling lop-sided, because the hub appears to be slanted slightly to one side. The wheels are the kind you attach with a nut and bolt and they are all at the same height.
Yes, I cleared away all the debris from the old grass clippings. The blade turns freely, but it tilts higher at one side. And yes, the hub is at a slight angle. Is it possible to level it?
The blade is on tight; I used a bicycle wrench and tightened it; then tapped it tighter with a hammer against the wrench.
I’ve done my best, and I do have a very good imagination!
