What will happen if i use my lawnmower until it runs out of gas (for storage)?

Question

Is there anything bad gonna happen?

Answer 1

It will insure you will not have any stale gas in it for next season.

Answer 2

By Golly I honestly think it will probably just go Putt Putt and quit. Now after that you have to Embalm it to Spring. 10W-30
oil goes in where the spark plug is and a potition of STA BIL gas treatment goes in the tank with about a cup of gas. Shake the mower and then start it let it run for 1 minute.
Push it in the building and tell it Night Night till spring.

Answer 3

Absolutely nothing bad will happen; you can do it that way or you can get fuel stabilizer at the auto parts store and not have to drain the fuel at all for storage

Answer 4

Nothing will happen except if any moisture gets in, it could corrode the carb. Put a small amount of 2 stroke oil in whatever is left and run it for a minute or two, then store it.

Answer 5

nothing bad will happen to it,but now days they say its better to leave gas in them than to drain them dry ,last year i left mine completely full and started it a few times over winter,and it did good this summer,running them dry does dry out some of the gaskets on them,so its up to you,but id suggest putting fresh gas in it before winter begins,and staring it once in a while.good luck with it.

Answer 6

That is the best thing to do. If you store it with fuel the fuel will go bad unless you get a fuel stabilizer to add to it.

Answer 7

not at all, unless you didn't finish yard..LOL anyway, it's good idea to use it all up.until next season just keep it out of the weather,change the gas filter,fill it up...get to work.
