My new lawn mower wouldn’t start this spring.  After puttering with it for a few minutes, I went to their website for some tips.  They suggested that perhaps the gas was bad and to never buy gas from a discount gas station.  And their suggested fix was to rebuild the carburetor.

Since the name brands and the off brands all buy their gas from the same refineries, I wasn’t buying the manufacturers suggestions.  Instead, I adjusted the fuel mixture and it ran just fine.
