Felt good after all this BS weather to actually get out and get some vitamin D from the sun and actually do something. Mower was a reck and I was dreading it. Had a flat tire and a dead battery. Pulled the car up (LOL) jumped it and had a cigarette lighter air pump that I plugged in and filled the tire. Who would have known buying a pump on a whim 2yrs ago when my tire was going flat at Autozone on my way to work would save the day? LOL. Mowing lawns?!?! What is that about? What are lawns? In AZ, you "rake the rocks".

Since I stopped using regular gas with 10% alcohol (or whatever the percentage is ) my lawn mower has never failed to start.. Some people will say to add gasoline stabilizer in regular gas and it might do the trick as well, but the alcohol does condense and leaves water in the tank. As luck would have it....not a damn one in my town. Interesting link though....thanks for sharing. RE: Mowing the Yard - HarleyDog - 05-01-2018 Went to a co-op today and asked for Calcium Chloride. Guy says, "We don't carry that?" So I bit him! RE: Mowing the Yard - HarleyDog - 05-01-2018 (04-30-2018, 11:57 PM)Bengalzona Wrote: Mowing lawns?!?! Take Note Wyche!

And those suckers don't wait for you to die to move in to your house either! Over in Quartzsite, some dude's game camera snapped this picture over the weekend: The dude said he was wondering why his cat was all clawed to hell and didn't want to go outside anymore. Now, he knows, eh! RE: Mowing the Yard - HarleyDog - 05-01-2018 (05-01-2018, 06:54 PM)Bengalzona Wrote: Seriously. And those suckers don't wait for you to die to move in to your house either!

Interesting link though....thanks for sharing. I think grampa meant ethanol not alcohol ( I could be wrong ). Lowes and home depot both carry additive free gas in the lawn mower section ( very costly cans ).

It's cheaper to go to your local municipal airport and buy some airplane fuel, i.e. ethanol free, high octane gasoline. My next door neighbor goes once every few weeks and takes about 20 gallons worth of cans for his lawn and garden equipment and dirt bikes. I don't give a damn myself. I've yet to break an engine despite abusing the hell out of all of them and exclusively using 10% ethanol mixtures. Disclaimer: the fuel does have Stabil added to each 5 gallon can as I DESPISE rebuilding a carburetor and am not going to empty the tank of a piece of equipment after each use because I don't know how long it might be before I use it again.

I concur on the non-ethanol for your lawn and garden equipment. Since I made the switch, all of my hard to start pieces seem to turn right over.
