I am looking to buy a self propelled lawn mower. Just wondering what people seem to prefer, front wheel propelled or rear wheel? Can you tell me your choice and why? Thanks


Answer
tinman and renpen make some excellent points. Generally, if I'm going to save the exercise on pushing, I'd opt for the more expensive rear wheel drives. They usually have a clutch, which will allow you to make your turns without lifting anything moving. The cheaper ones are usually front wheel driven. I'd spend the money on rear-wheel, usually it's also better quality. Also, I've used these, and they give better control. Look/inspect the better brands/models, they're usually rear-wheel driven.
But to each his/her own. Good luck and happy mowing.

My lawn mower wont start?

I have a Craftsman Briggs and Stratton 6.75 push mower. It ran out of gas one time and hasn't worked right since. Starter fluid will get it going but it takes a lot of it to keep it running and if I cut it off I have to repeat the whole process again for it to start back up. I have replaced the air filter, and spark plug. I completely took apart the carburetor and gas tank and cleaned them and then refilled with new gas. There's nothing wrong with the fuel line, its fairly new and I also cleaned that out. I have no idea what else I can do. The only thing I can think of is that the gasket between the air filter and the carb ripped and now it doesn't have one. Could that be the problem? Any ideas?


Answer
The carburetor is the problem. In order to really clean a carburetor you have to remove it, take it apart and soak it in a quality parts solvent. You can sometimes get them clean with a spray can of carb cleaner but than again you may not succeed. The gasket between the air filter and the carburetor is not the problem, the problem is the carburetor is still plugged.
