its a 7-22651 Murray self-propelled older model, put new gas in the tank & checked the oil, but it still wont start. We got it off craigslist for free and they said it worked fine, but they were obviously lying just to get rid of it.. any ideas on if it could be a simple fix?

How do I make my self-propelled lawnmower go faster?

I just bought a Troy Bilt self-propelled rear-wheel drive lawnmower with a Honda engine and four forward speeds. The problem is that I’d like it to go a little faster than a gentle stroll. It has plenty of power to cut the grass if I push it at a brisk walk downhill, but I wish it would maintain that speed with the drive engaged. Anyone know where I could find bigger wheels that would work or another way to speed it up?

where do i find the carbarrator in a crafstman riding lawnmower?

I understand it is beneficial for the lawn to get nutrients from the grass clippings which is why sometimes i dont use the grass catcher. But how much is too much and how often should i switch from using the grass catcher to not using it? Should i use it every other time i mow?

How can I get my lawnmower up and running again after it stopped because I didn’t change the oil?

John asked:


I started the lawnmower up this spring and it had very little oil left in it. It ran for a few minutes, then I heard a bang bang bang and it just stopped. Now what do I do? Can I just add more oil and it will start again? It is a Toro 4-cycle 6.5 hp push mower.

What kind of of oil and gas do i use for this lawnmower?

I have no idea what its for. Does it even serve any significance as to protect my legs from debris? or is it like a leveling device to spread the cut grass/leaves evenly across the area behind what i just mowed.

brooster asked:


I went to their site and was unable to find out. I need to remove my blade and I am having difficulty because the nut is very tight. I am not sure wether it is left or right hand thread although the blade turns clockwise I would tend to think it should be left but I have been told that this is not always the case.

Which type of lawnmower is less expensive to operate?

With the increase in gas prices, I was thinking about an electric lawn mower. But then I get my electric bill and it is through the roof, too. Which would be the better choice?
