okay so I left it outside and it has endured all this rain we have had lately. To make matters worse I lost the gas cap, so rain obviously penetrated the tank. Now it won't start. Has oil in it, granted I have not changed it in a while. Did the rain fug this thing up or is it possible something else caused it to not want to start?

It's just a regular craftsman push mower btw.

pull the hose off the nipple (yeap) on the bottom of the tank.

Take the bowl off the bottom of the carb, and let it drain out.

Spray the carb with ether and push on the floats to make sure they are not hung up.

Take out the spark plug and while it's still connected grab the end of the plug with bare hand and pull the starter rope.

If you get a little shock you are still getting power.

Put it all back together, add gas, clean the air filter, spray a quick shot of ether into the air hole that goes to the carb, see if it fires off.

Go mow your grass and send me $85.00

      Saints and Seahawks both making a push for Cooper Kupp The Rams receiver has at least two teams that are very interested in signing him. According to The Athletic, the Seahawks and Saints are both making a push to sign Kupp. The Seahawks could certainly use another receiver after trading DK Metcalf and cutting Tyler Lockett. As for the Saints, they don't have a ton of salary cap space, so it will be interesting to see if they can meet Kupp's asking price, which is apparently around $13 million or $14 million per year.

      The intent behind the question wasn’t bad, it’s just how he framed the question was kinda goofy. I’m surprised people like him can do media professionally when they aren’t good public speakers. I wonder what he gets paid to do this.

      Running back Kareem Hunt is returning to the Kansas City Chiefs on a one-year contract worth up to $2.5 million, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Friday.   He returns to a backfield led by Isiah Pacheco that also added former San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell this week.   Hunt, 29, joined the Chiefs for his second tour with the team early in the 2024 season after they placed Isiah Pacheco on the injured reserve list. Hunt led the Chiefs in rushing with 728 yards and seven touchdowns. He also rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns in three postseason games.
