DON'T RUN ON EMPTY!
This is what can be hiding at the bottom of a mower's fuel tank! 👀
Over time, dirt, rust, degraded fuel and other debris can accumulate in the tank. Regularly running the fuel level very low increases the chance of this contamination making its way into the fuel system, potentially blocking filters and the tiny passages inside the carburettor.
Our advice? Keep a sensible amount of fresh petrol in the tank during regular use, and avoid leaving old fuel sitting in the machine for long periods.
