I hate feeling like I accomplished nothing. Not to mention the $141.21 I spent on my second weed whacker in 2 months.

 

Jose, they can surge pretty bad if the mixture screw is way off. Sometimes you can give it 1/4 to 1/2 choke and it'll run smoother, but I'm guessing your lawn mower doesn't have a choke unless it's old. Your Dad might have fiddled with the carb screws, turn the mix screw 1/2 turn either way and see if it runs better. Just in case, be sure you know how to get it back where it is right now. I hate those little carbs on mowers and such, sometimes nothing seems to have an effect until I pull them apart, gunk soak them, blow them out, and then without knowing how I fixed it, they'll run. Pita little bits of pot metal.

 

I finally got that (digital) pic of mt sister from my aunt. She looks a lot like my Mom. My Aunt also gave me a brilliant idea...I can ask the catholic curch in Pueblo for her baptism record to get her birth date and proper name spelling to do more research.

 

Cool Mark!

 

Good tip Moldy!

 

It's a 4 stroke. That's probably why it's acting up.

 

Did someone call me? I heard "stroke"

 

Lol! I'm not sure what I did to that mower last time but it was running great.

 

Fuel, fire or air, Jose. It isn't getting one of those. How old is the mower?
