My lawn mower won't start. There was a spider's nest in the spark plug cap, which I removed. My fiance put in SAE-25 car engine oil, and he put in too much. He took out some oil and it still won't start. After some research I discovered that we need to put in SAE-30 (about 1/2 quart). Any ideas?


Answer
25-30 is ok I take it it has been sitting around a while drain any gas shove a rag down in the gas tank if necessary put fresh gas in turn switch on if it has one, choke and try to start
here is a site for repair if it doesn't start

How do I get my riding lawn mower ready for spring?

My riding lawn mower is pretty old. It was stored in a garage with radiant floor heating this winter and I had put stabilizer in the fuel the last time I used it. Nothing else was done. What do I have to do to get it ready to start cutting grass?


Answer
Well, start by changing the oil (use 20w-50) & filter (if it has one), placing fresh gas in it, giving the blade(s) a good sharpening. Take the air cleaner off and clean the air filter. take the spark plug(s) out and clean or replace them.Take the battery cables off and cleaning the ends with a wire brush. Take a very good look at the belts and note the part #'s of each, as there may be a good chance of needing a replacement at some point during the cutting season. Do the same with the tires and make sure the pressure is the same in each one. Use a can of white lithium grease on the mechanical deck levers, steering mechanism and anything that use a grease gun on anything that has a zerk fitting. Check any drive gear oil(s) and top them off or change them. (some machines use 75W-90 gear oil)

This same service would ordinarily cost you around $300 so do it yourself and save that cash!
happy cutting....
