snodderly~ Thanks for the tips! I had already told H about it. Strange thing is he put more gas in it and it worked. He asked me if I was sure I had put gas in it. lol Of course I did! So as I am mowing the rest of the lawn (cause apparently he won't do that anymore either, but that's ok, good workout for me), the mower sounds terrible, but doesn't stop running like it did for me after I had filled it up. I was stunned, I really have no idea where the gas I KNOW I put in it got to...... but somehow when he refilled it it kept running! LOL The only thing to do is to laugh about it, it's just too strange! When I came back inside he said, " I apologize, clearly something is wrong with it." I just kinda looked at him and then said, "are you being sarcastic?" He said "no, it sounds terrible." And he will look at it sometime this weekend if he gets a chance. I said ok, it's just nice to know I'm not losing my mind, cause I know I put gas in there! Then I laughed and walked away. So hopefully, if he does decide to look at it he can figure out what is wrong.
