I was cutting grass when the mower acked like is was running out of gas, and I knew it was close to being empty. I filled the tank, started mower and it sputtered on any speed above idle. I thought it might have sucked trash into the filter, or fouled a plug. replaced plug and fuel filter. now the unit only runs with choke open. when i adjust the throttle to any other position it quits. Any suggestions?

I would like to grow herbs in tiny flower pots in my kitchen. I just like the way they look, and I love the idea of having fresh herbs for when I cook. I just need some advice on doing it. I was thinking basil, but that's the only one I can think of. Which ones should I grow? And should I plant seeds or but the herb plants and just plant them? Do I need to put plant feed in the potting soil? Any advice on growing herbs in pots would be helpful. Thanks.

I can't have an open cavity underneath it because i don't want critters making a home down there. This will be a straight shot up. One builder wants to pour concrete into a form with rebar and do the entire thing from a concrete truck. Another builder wants to use cinder blocks to build up most of the base, and then hand mix concrete to cover the rebar and stairs - forming a 2" slab across all the steps. I don't want to spend more than 800 dollars.

Does anyone know the best way to build this staircase? 4 feet high, 4 feet wide and a total length of 6 feet from end to end as measured on the dirt. Exterior. Thanks so much!

I have a pole lamp, and when I tried to change the light bulb the other day, it wedged in the socket, and now I can't turn it either way. I'm scared it's going to break in my hand if I twist too hard. Will I have to break it, and take the remainder out with plyers, or is there an easier way? Thanks!

There were metal pumpkins and porceline pumpkins in the case. Saw them in Ohio at the Hummel House there. I would appreciate anyone who knows of this store to give me their e-mail address or a brochure they may have on the internet. Thank you.

We ate an avacado and want to plant the seed, but we do not know if we are suppose to let the seed dry out first or just plant it. We also want to know exactly how deep to plant it and where...sunlight and so on.

I have an industrial size pressure washer (the kind that has to be hauled on a trailer). We have only had the metal roof for about 1 1/2 year and I am afraid of damaging it with the pressure washer. What chemicals should I use and is there anything natural that can be used?
