Mower smoking. I need to look like I know what I'm doing!

Put your compression test gauge on it and cold crank it, s/b north of 110 if rings still good

I put AV-Gas in my mower so I could get the job done faster.

And at higher altitudes as well. I here NZ has a few hills.

Someone better check on Steve &. He hasn't commented on this thread since Sunday. Hopefully he hasn't taken the gas pipe from his smoking mower running in his garage.

My mower the rubber seal for the gas cap disintegrated and clogged the carburetor float allowing the fuel to flow into the oil pan. Tired of working on it and the 20 safety sensors to protect me from self inflicted harm through idiot law suits. Bought a electric rider 4 years ago and am very happy.
