What did you accomplish today?

[Roger A. Shrubber]

could be a lot of things, the cheapest and easiest is check your gas cap. they're supposed to be vented, as they age they get plugged up and brittle, try running it next time without the cap at all, just stick a rag in it loosely to keep anything from falling in. there's also a little electric solenoid under the float bowl, those go bad quite often. the gas line itself sometimes get soft as they age, feel the line and see if there are any soft spots. if there are, replace the gas line

I need some small engine advice.
My old craftsman riding lawn mower recently started dying while I'm mowing, like it's running out of gas. Sputters a few times as an early warning then dies.
It's definitely not out of gas.
Here's the kicker -- if I let it sit a couple of hours, it starts up after extensive cranking and I can finish the yard.
WTF?
I'm thinking fuel system so I changed the fuel filter.
Nothing changed.
What do you think?
Maybe a gunked up carb? But why would a cool down period help a clogged carb?
I'm stumped.

What do you think?

Clean fuel lines, carbs, etc, and check for potential vapour locks as if the fuel line has an issue with flow, usually caused by running her to dry and sucking all the crap of the day out of the tank, then a bit of heat can evaporate the fuel and cause a vapour lock in the fuel line. You get that, a bubble of vapour that can't move, fuel flow stops, engine cuts, everything cools down and the bubble of vapour turns back into liquid, fuel flows again.

could the tank vent be clogged? try to start it with the cap off.

Stayed up too late last night, didn't get up early enough today, still behind the eight ball. Watered everything to saturation, indoor and out, right when I got up. I was supposed to be leaving this morning for a few day vaca, but seeing how my life is dictated by plant cycles that only have a short window to harvest, I can't. Hopefully I can get out of here by mid afternoon. I have plants I thought would go to the end of the week, but they've peaked really quick, I think they've hit the downhill side and I need to cut them. There's a few hours of trimming I wasn't planning on. I'm sitting here smoking a mix blend joint and rolling a pile for the next coupe days, I figure 20s enough for 3 days? Hopefully. If not I have a few cartridges of blueberry oil. Plus whatever other people have. Since I've just about quit drinking, I always worried I won't have enough bud. Back to work, chopping Blueberry, Green Crack, maybe some Blue Crack( Blue Dream/ Green Crack cross from a BD hermi I had.)

Good advice on the mower malfunction - I think you guys probably nailed it.

Since we're getting off track, can someone tell me what this little electronical gizmo might be?
Found it in a hotel room last week in New Orleans.


The cylindrical tube that runs down through it is hollow and open to the atmosphere at the bottom. There is also bit of moisture inside the case.

Any Ideas?

Lastly I need to give a big shout out to Budget Rent a Car.



FUCK YOU BUDGET !!

A local bar sponsored an event called "Baby Goats & Beer" that was a lot of fun!
This 6-day-old had been mauled by a little girl right before I held him but he calmed down quickly.

Add @Gary Goodson and his BBQ to that and you have a party.

I was up at the butt crack of dawn, with a headache. My rescue raven, Stinky Girl has a juvenile that almost everyone in my neighborhood would like dead. It sat outside my open bedroom window and squawked until I got up and fed it. It has this horrible squawk and very loud.

Nope, not a thing.

dunno wtf that is, looks like it's meant to be attached to something else....maybe a key to a briefcase full of blues?

I was talking to a buddy at work & he suggested it might be a vape cartridge - & sure enough the non-contact end has a slight "fruity" smell to it.

Ok, paranoia alarm lighting secured.
