So some of you may have known about our UPGRADE Lawn Mower debacle...Well it got better yesterday!!We're out doing yard work, me planting flowers and lying down mulch, Jarrett power washing the house and mowing the lawn. Jarrett got the outside of the fence line mowed and we decided to stop for lunch. We leave for about an hour, come back and jump back into what we were doing. Jarrett goes to start the mower and nothing.....it wouldn't start, nothing. He walks over and is like ready to pull his hair out. As a reminder, this is now the Toro that we went and spent an additional $140 on compared to the crafstman that we had bought from Sears. He's going crazy trying to figure out what the hell is going on. I'm just sitting on the ground laughing to myself because I have no idea WTF is going on.
Then all of a sudden the light bulb goes off...............
Mower 1: We brought home in the box from Sears and it wouldn't start
Mower 2: Sears put together and put the gas and oil in for me
Mower 3: We brought home in the box from Sears and it wouldn't start
Mower 4: Now we're onto the New Mower from Toro, they put together and put the oil and gas in
Mower 4: The Toro mower that worked for a mow and a half then died.
hmmm.......ever heard of bad gas? Jarrett figured it could only be bad gast. He had filled up the tank with our gas before we left for lunch. We emptied out the tank, he ran to the store and got something to mix with the new gas to help get the old out of the tank and BINGO, it started right up. So the moral of the story, make sure you have good gas! We wasted $140 extra dollars and had our gas been good the crafstman would have worked perfectly!!
