spark distance gets smaller with compression, meaning that it takes higher voltage as compression goes up. I agree with what Ilengine...

Make sure you ID it proper before firing harsh chemicals at it. Might be using the wrong herbicide.

There are many aps you can load on your cell phone. I use one called Picture This. Snap a picture of said weed or plant and it tells you...

Snip off the after-fire solenoid plunger tip with some dikes. Install an inline fuel shut off valve. Close the fuel off about a min...

Front wheel drive mowers are probably the worst mowers for steep inclines. Not much you can do to solve this issue.

These are mower engines not the space shuttle. Lapping seals valves to valve seats. Pretty important in the combustion process.

You are convinced that lapping valves does no good? Then why has it been an industry standard since the first valve engines came into...

Lapping valves also increases the compression. When valves and the seats are pitted and carboned up, it really affects the engine...
