PittsburghBeerPong asked:


We had left gas and oil in it over the winter…..have now drained and replaced gas and oil. Added fuel system cleaner also. We someone sprays starter fluid on it it runs while it is being sprayed, but stops pretty soon afterwards (so I don’t think its the spark plug). Somebody suggested to me that it is a fuel line problem and the engine is just not getting the gas. If that is so how can I fix it? Thanks!

Travis asked:


I have a 3hp Tecumseh motor on my Toro push mower, and when the grass gets long it’s all the thing can do to mow it without overheating or stalling all together.

I’ve tuned it up with proper spark plug and gap, changed the oil, cleaned the air filter and sharpened the blade. Is there anything else I can do???

I have a 22″ Toro Self-propelled Lawn mower and whenever I just normally push the lawnmower before I start it, the front wheels are locking up and I have to pull the drive cable back toward me to dis-engage the clutch it seems. It’s really wierd. The self-propelled works perfect when I’m running the mower and all. I just can’t determine why it’s trying to engage when I’m just pushing it.
