I have a Honda self-propelled mower.It is not starting.I started it back in April but not since as I hired my neighbor's kid to mow. Do you think it might be the spark plugs or something else? Thanks for any advice you can give me.

When I turn on my water, I hear a sound like a motor running in the pipes. It isn't close to the water heater so it's not that. And it's definately not a hammer sounding noise. It stops shortly after I turn the water off. Any suggestions?

the boards are obviously broken. the carpet is the only thing keeping me from crashing through the floor. the issue will be resolved in one week. problem is that in the meanwhile i'm hosting a party which will involve lots of passing over and on those broken floorboards. what can i do for my special day to keep my guests from taking a tumble? can i put a large sheet of plywood and cover it with a rug or will the added weight further damage the boards underneath?

I have an old Murray Ridding mower with a 12 HP Briggs some how gas is in the oil? I noticed this when cutting high grass it started smokeing white so I shut it off and the oil was really thin and smelled like gas. I changed the oil someone told me the float will stick in the carb when the motor is under heavy load. He recommended cleaning the carb. What should I do next and how can I keep this from happening again.

I scotch-taped a poster to the window of my car, and after two weeks, the scotch tape I used had all but fused to the window! I've removed the poster already, but the edges of the tape that stuck to the window won't peel away; they flake and leave sticky marks on the glass when we scratch it off with fingernails. I tried removing the tape with soap and water, alcohol, even dishwashing fluid (which normally works well with sticky tape), but it leaves marks. Any ideas?

I'm in So. Calif, it's very dry. We're ready to repaint the whole exterior of our house, and I'm just wondering how long it will be before we have to do this again.

Does that depend on the type of paint used?

The unit runs but the fan does not move. I had it checked for a routine service a few months ago and everything was fine. Could it be the condensor unit and if so is this an expensive thing to do or would it be more feasible to buy a completely new unit. As soon as I realized the fan wasn't moving, I shut the thermostat off to prevent further problems, hopefully that wa the right thing to do.

It is about 9 years old also.

I am also under eminent domaine with my home and do not want to put alot of money into it to be taken from me.

Anty suggestions are greatly appreciated.
