Bummer, my 3yr old niece filled one of mine up with sand one time. :rofl: At least I noticed it before I started it.
I'd be thrilled if my wife attempted to mow.

At least she got some of the lawn mowed
No, I think that is worse because "now I have a strip in my lawn and the rest is too tall and it looks like hell and everyone drives by and sees it and the dandylions are getting out of controll and.....blah blah blah....."
She wants me to buy her a zero turn mower now! Im thinkin if she's gonna dump roundup in it she better stick with what she has for a while. Hell, its only 3 years old!
She likes to mow and do all the yardwork and flower planting and all that good stuff which is fine with me!
So Jason is this thread about you?

you should see what N2O sprayed directly from the bottle does, 3.5hp B&S motors dont hold together well lol.
Just wait a few days for when that strip turns brown.
Your wife might have just tried to invent the next best thing in lawn care. "Roundup Ready Mowers"
The roundup was in its origional 2 1/2 gallon jug. It was actually generic Roundup (Cornerstone) so it was in a clear jug. She said it looked like gas and kida smelled like it....
The reason it would be confused is because we are stupid farmers and stupid farmers will keep jugs around all the time to haul stuff like gas, oil, water..... Even though we have a 300 gal barrel for gas in our yard it isnt always full, like right now when gas is too damn high for me to fill the barrel---I usually try to pick a low in the market to fill it. So when the barrel is empty we will "borrow" gas from my old man's barrel or fill some up in town. We do have the red jugs that we use when we fill up in town, but when I'm at Dad's working and grab some gas before I come home it almost always goes into a handy jug, preferably clear so I can see when its close to full.... So she thought it was the spare gas from last year.
Works good too!Stuff kills lawn mowers too!
I bet Monsanto has the patent on that already also--probably be sending me a bill for the tech fee next week!Just wait a few days for when that strip turns brown.

I also told her that where she drained it was gonna kill the grass and I'll be damned if it hasnt even phased it gas or roundup.....Yeah, at least it was only the $14 a gallon stuff from last year--Not over $20/gallon like it is now. That damn generic jug cost me a bunch last year though also! In order to qualify for Roundup to reimburse your tech fees if you have to re-plant anything is to use all monsanto products. So out of the over 120 gallons of roundup I used this stinkin 2 1/2 gallon jug she got for weeds around the yard DQ'd me from my rebates (over $500). I tried to give them the jug back (shove it up thier *****) last year but it didnt matter...... The jug has since been incenerated....Roundup aint cheap. That was some expensive fuel
Ought to make longest post of the year
I actually tried to kill a POS B&S push mower once! It was fun and unreal at the same time! We drained all oil and fired her up to WOT with the govener disconnected! Burned 2 tanks of gas like that! It had smoke out the dipstick like a coal train! Finally just died from lack of compression, so i dumped a 1/2 qt of used, nasty diesel oil and sloshed it and dumped it out and now it refuses to die! So, i snapped all the cooling fins off the head and block and fan fins on the flywheel and stuffed some insulation on the motor to hold the heat in :rofl: and fueled it with some old 20% Nitromethane R/C fuel, 6" flame out the pipe! Still not dead, Ok Acetone! Now im thinkin it deserves to live! and the acetone trashed the carb and it dies
