For those that can't get their gas powered equipment to run in the spring, it's probably due to forgetfulness or being an idle buzzard. Clean lawnmowers, oil change and drain carbs or fill with treated gas, whichever your poison and method. That goes for chainsaws, generators, weed wackers and least but not last, pressure washers. Leave it outside without being drained or serviced with pump antifreeze, sure as sherlock, the pump will split. Don't neglect the toys that make life easy for you.
