For the second year in a row, we had to call the repairperson for our lawn mower. We tried to start it and it gave the "No Mas" signal. Last year it was the alcohol in the gasoline that turned into water. So I got a can of the octane booster. nope. This time the guy said our spark plug was dead. Does that happen to you? (it seems to happen to us every spring).

I changed the plug last year and then the button of the little pump that you have to push to pump the gasoline when you start the mower. I checked YouTube videos, I did everything myself and I patted my back when it worked.

@DocAndersen I discovered that I like to fix things, my husband is like you, he can do everything with a computer, he builds his computers, but the rest he does not even want to know.

I can fix a network, solve problems with technology even take apart a computer and rebuild it. But a lawnmower, no chance. You are well ahead me on that one!!!

Yes, sometimes. But if it wont crank for me I will charge the battery, if it still won`t crank I will change the spark plug, if it still wont crank, I call someone for help. As you can tell I have had mower problems before.
