chyancarrek Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 So, he "mowed down" his mower? (sorry, couldn't resist) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bentiron1946 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I know how he feels. It is a 110f and the thing won't start again, you have half the yard done and you have pulled youself sick. IT WON'T Start! So may be he shouldn't have shot it, just fired up the five hundred pound Little Giant and beat it to death.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrous Beuler Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Idiot. Everybody knows lawnmower is out of season in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welder19 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I have felt like that before, I beat a weed wacker to death before cause it wouldn't run, but that was an on going problem and it was just one of those days, but I don't really act like that any more, that was when I was younger and slightly out of control. He has a point, it was his yard and his lawn mower, of coarse if he lives in a suburban area then that might be a diferent story. welder19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironrosefarms Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Just look at that picture, you can tell he worked real hard and real long trying to get that thing started. I didn't know there was laws about cruelty to lawn mowers!!! James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug C Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Don't tell anyone but I took one out with a sledge hammer once. Buried it in a land fill. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayco Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I got so mad at an old push mower once, that I shoved it into the creek after a hundred or so cranks didn't get it started. And yeah, I had checked the plug,checked the gas, filed the points( it was an old lawnmower), and sanded the 'mag'........ Left it in the creek overnight. Well, next morning, it didn't look quite right there in the creek, so...I fished it out, brought it back to the garage and let it sit there for a while. I don't know what made me do it,( stubborness, I suppose), but I just had to give that old lawn mower one more crank. And it started! It just goes to show you,........sometimes funny things happen!

JohnW Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Yeah Jayco, that's the next strategy. For a 2 cycle, if you know you've got gas and spark, and it won't start after a lot of cranking, then let it set for half an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Martin Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 In the creek. right jayco?? I heard from my grandma that he will probably be jailed for sure, and the fines dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayco Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Yeah, m brothers, in the creek! Since the creek was at the edge on the lawn, it seemed like a handy place to dispose of the mower at the time. Had there been a cliff, canyon, or ocean nearby.........it probably would have went in one of those places! There is nothing as infuriating as a lawnmower that won't start after you've cranked yourself to nearly a coronary........and it's near 100 degrees!
