A month or so ago I sold a 4 stroke mower to a bloke obviously from the sub continent. A couple of weeks later he rang me and said it wouldn't start. I told him to bring it over so I could see what the problem was. He came over New Years Eve, first thing I did was pull the air filter off to check the primer was working, nothing,then opened the filler cap and bingo, no fuel. Put some fuel in it and it started first pull. Then today I had a bloke ring and ask if I could look at a 2 stroke mower he bought from KMart about a year ago and now it won't start. Said his wife had used it and it must be her fault. When he arrived it was obviously a Chonda so I said I'm not really interested in looking at it but he pleaded with me to see if I could get it going. I put it up on the bench, looked in the fuel tank, not much fuel, pulled the fuel hose off the filter, fuel there, then looked along to the carby and the fuel tap was shut. Turned on the tap and it fired straight up.Going to be an interesting year
