Gas Tank

Step 2: Take care to turn the mower off and make sure the engine is cool. Then remove the ignition key and disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental ignition.

Step 3: Unscrew the gas cap on the top of the riding lawn mower.

Step 4: Take the oil siphon pump and place the orange tube into the gas tank on the engine and the black tube into a container designed for the collection and disposal of gasoline.

Step 5: With the tubes in the correct place, pump the handle three or four times to prime it. Once the liquid begins to flow, it will continue flowing without further pumping.

Step 6: When the bad gas in the lawn mower has been drained, you can remove the oil siphon pump and set aside the old gas for disposal.

Step 7: Add new gas to your riding lawn mower. Make sure when you change your lawn mower's bad gas that the new gas has a fuel stabilizer mixed in to help it last longer. This is especially important when you're doing end-of-season maintenance.

Step 8: Replace the gas cap and reconnect the spark plug ignition wire.

Step 9: Dispose of your lawn mower's bad gas properly by taking it to a local waste disposal facility.

After you've changed the gas in your riding lawn mower, start the engine and let the new gas cycle through for a few minutes in a well-ventilated area before returning to mow the lawn. Make sure you check the gasoline at least once a season. If it contains debris or your engine is not running smoothly, it's probably time to replace the old gasoline in your lawn mower.

Draining fuel allows oxygen to enter the lawn mower's carburetor. It's impossible to get every last drop of gasoline out. When oxygen attacks the small fuel droplets left behind, it causes gum and varnish.

What do I do if my lawn mower has old gas?

After confirming that the fuel's problem, you have to drain the old or remaining gas from the fuel tank. The easiest way is to do it is by using a siphon hose. If the mower still does not work properly, check the carburetor and clean all of its parts. The mower should work after filling the tank with new gas.

Can a lawnmower run on old gas?

The short answer is yes-your gasoline does expire, and it will actually expire in less time than you might expect. As a general rule, you've only got about 30 to 60 days after you've pumped the gas at your local gas station before it can no longer be used. Once it's expired, it could do some damage to your equipment.
