Spent about 7 hours in the yard today, cutting up tree trunks that were cut down a while ago, and we're still cleaning up the yard ... got a lot done, really pleased with the progress.
Damn Jonsered chainsaw keeps giving me a hard time starting, I think it floods very easily. I've had it a couple years, I should probably throw a new spark plug in it, I'm sure it won't hurt. Current one was wet when I took it out.
Lawn mower barely started, there was smoke coming from the starter at one point.
Key turned, the engine would try to turn but it would stop, then try to turn again ... eventually the fucker started and didn't give me any more problems.
Battery is OK, does that sound like the starter's about to shit the bed?
Or something more serious, like the engine itself?
Mower is one of these old Craftsman things, the engine's already been replaced on it about 5-6 years ago now, according to the previous owner:
And yes, I recently got the little yard trailer for it, love having it, it's proven so useful so many times already !!!
