Petrol in the tank and getting through. Enough to make the plug wet.

Big fat spark at the plug. I've tried another plug, also with a big juicy spark.

SFA.....not even a cough or a splutter.

How old is the fuel?


As it's only a mower don't answer that, just dump whatever fuel is in the tank and flush the carb with fresh petrol.


While you have the plug out(that's how you know it has a spark), put your finger over the hole and check for compression.

The fuel is new. I've taken the shitty plastic carb off and cleaned it out with fresh petrol.

I'll check for compression but it was fine when I last used it a couple of months ago.

It's the highlight of the year in those parts 😂

I thought they would be digging up their carrots & sprouts ready for Christmas.

Yeah...I know. I need a mower in December to cut the grass I should have cut in Sept/Oct. There is some long grass where rats are hiding. Rats that are chewing through the wiring on the Tata and the mighty Signum.

Maybe next week, too much excitement in one day isn't good for the old fella.😁

I'm decades younger than you and younger than the Irish fella.

In actual years, maybe, but I was talking about brain age. You need to stimulate the grey matter, not be reading last years news. 😆

No maybe about it. I believe you are a couple of years older than Ronny.

You are mistaken, of course, but that will be the senility.

Didn't you know that petrol mowers hibernate in the winter M'lud? 

You need an electric one!

Had one....with two fifty metre leads. Still not enough. Petrol is the answer, especially for cars.

You need a cage trap, a bucket of water and also an air rifle.
