Q: What are some simple lawn mower problems I can fix on my own?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for minor issues like replacing spark plugs, but professional repairs ensure proper diagnostics and longevity.</p></div>

Q: How do different elements influence the expense of fixing a lawn mower?

• <div><p>Costs depend on mower type, labor, replacement part needs, and severity of the issue.</p></div>

Q: Can you tip a lawn mower on its side?

• <div><p>Yes, you can tip a lawn mower on its side as long as you turn it with the carburetor side upwards. This prevents oil from leaking into the carburetor and reducing performance. You can also tip the mower backward as long as it's stable while you're working on the deck or blades for safety.</p></div>

Q: Why is my lawn mower smoking?

• <div><p>Sometimes dark smoke trailing out of your lawn mower is the result of excess oil. It smokes as it burns off. Other times, it could signal a problem with the combustion or contaminated fuel. If changing the fuel and cleaning your mower doesn&rsquo;t help, call a professional (especially if the smoke is white).</p></div>
