I know someone who has a lawn care business, does landscaping, building, and remodeling also. He is not licensed in lawn care, fertilization, or building of any sort. Can he get in trouble for not being licensed, and if so, how do I report him?

Problem lately after I let the lawn mower sit a few days it will not start. I pull the start chain over and over and it will not start.

Also after I mess with it, it will starts up but a lot of smoke come out of the exchaust. Not sure why or what needs to be done to fix this.

I have a toro lawn mower if that helps.

Thanks!

I recently replaced the starter rope and pully assembly on my Snapper lawn mower. When I did this I changed the oil. I started it up for the first use after the repair and it seemed to work fine and I continued to mow the lawn with no problems at all. The next time I when to mow the lawn I pulled on the starter rope the engine tried to start but the starter rope stayed extended. I proceded to take the mower back apart to check the pully assembly. The spring was kinda funky and I think I fixed it, however, when I got it all back together and tried to start the mower again I could not pull the rope unless I pulled really hard and it didn’t start. I checked the oil and it was empty. But I know I put oil in it. Any one know what happened? What to do? How Much its gonna cost me?

dreamzgirl asked:

I need to buy a lawn mower, but I know nothing about how torque rating affects performance. I have seen several lawn mowers with the same horse power that have different torque ratings. Is more torque automatically better?

The area I want to mow is relatively flat and small (apx. 1/8 acre). I just want a standard, push-behind gas mower, but I want it to last. I was looking at the Craftsman mowers at Sears. Any advice on what I should be looking for?

ezioldschool asked:

I have this lawn mower that has a problem staying running, after i prime it 3/4 times it turns on then after only a few seconds it turns off. I changed the spark plug and it seems to be passing sparks fine. I thinks its the carburetor that is not passing gas. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix it and if i were to take off the caburetor would it be a hasle to put it back on. The lawn mower is a weed eater 4.75hp and i’ve only had it for about a year.
I think that the cabuerator isn’t passing any gas. Any tips on how to fix this?
