Well, ya probably put too much oil in the crank-case! (Thats where the oil is when you check it, or change it.) Now: If your mower has a dip-stick, do not fill the engine to the top of the dip-stick tube! This will definitely cause oil to run out of the carburetor! And also tend to "lock up" the engine! The dip-stick has several markings on it at the lower end. Oil should only be put in until it reaches the highest mark on the stick. This accomplished by adding oil sparingly, as you pull out the stick, wipe it off, then stick it in again and pull it out, to see where the oil level is. Only add oil to fill the crankcase to the top line on the stick! (More engines have been ruined by "dip-sticks!")

Hi Repol! I am 5'2" and looking to lose 20 pounds. I started back onto my health journey with my friend and we keep in touch to buddy up. I'll be your buddy here - and anyone else who wants to join us - and help you along. I too want to get down to the same weight goal. And I'm at the same weight as you - how much better can it get for seeking a diet buddy, eh? For those of you who are lurking - yes there used to be a huge following here years ago. And we used to keep a weekly thread going for any type of dieter to join. Someone suggested they do a FB page and the entire group left. Since then it's been dead on here. Maybe if I start at weekly thread again those of you lurking would be welcome to join in and we can keep going together. I'm starting a weekly thread - so join us! Cheers, McPeg

My wife and I grow a large variery of roses. We have found that in general David Austin roses require more spraying than othe varieties that are better acclimated to Florida. The grafting of plants onto Fortuniana root stock is to make up for the weakness in the root system of some roses. Unfortunately the academic types have used their lack of specific knowledge to proclaim that all roses grown in Florida be on Fortuniana. This is not the case. When growing in Florida many areas lack organic material in the "soil" Have a soil test done through your county co-operative extension so that you can amend the planting area as indicated. We like a deep bed of mulch around our plants We use 4-6" of wood chips or composted horse manure, both will add organic material over time. Some people prefer to grow in pots, this way you control the media that they grow in by using something such as Jungle Growth which is available at some Lowe's and Walmarts. The material is high in organic material and drains well. You might even want to use it when planting in the ground. We went through a number of plants before learning how to grow roses. It also took several years to carch on. You can do it and be successful. You might try some native roses in the future. You might also consider going to the Central Florida Heritage Rose Society meeting held monthly in Lakeland, FL.

When the switch is "on" the voltage should be pretty close to zero. When the switch is off, you might read something closer to 120V. Odd small voltages probably indicate that you're reading phantom induced voltages. You meter has a very high input impedance. Twisting the wires together and taping them is ***NOT*** a legal way to connect things. If there's not a proper fastener under all that tape, yes put a wire nut on it. MAKE SURE YOU TURN OFF THE BREAKER FIRST. As for the two cut off wires, they probably were connected to something that has been removed. Hopefully, they don't have voltage on them because even though they're not stripped, it's still possible that the tips could touch or arc against the metal box or other conductive stuff in the box. I'd cap them off with a wire nut or something just to avoid problems. This whole thing reeks of some previous harry homeowner doing some DIY work. You may want to have someone with a clue take a look at things just to make sure it is right. It's not possible to tell by looking at a photograph.
