We are assiduous in our service regime; you look at the kit of service parts, do you see a fuel filter with the oil, oil & air filters, plugs etc. I don’t recall see one recently however I haven’t done an exhaustive search, but I have put one on my list of things to change, when everything is attended to in spring. (Roll on spring).

Cobber,  what I have done with old fuel is mix it with some fresh and used it in our lawn mower, it smells really bad and the mower doesn't like it much but it's being used.

We’ll it’s a good job someone’s on the ball. I have to say that the little pile of bits illustrated on one advertisement I looked, to recap didn’t have the fuel filter, the other two did, so I was 33.3% correct, which is probably a pass these days, instead of the “requires significant improvement” when I was worrying about exam results.

I pay a bloke to mow the lawns, I got better things to do than chase a bloody lawn mower around the yard let alone maintain the horrid things.....I despise small engines they are backward and poorly designed rubbish built to the lowest possible cost

I couldnt get away with that with my petrol lawn mower. The damn thing is really fussy on fuel, equally hates E10 petrol and amything that has been standing for a few months so I always have to run it on fresh E5. Any dirty petrol tends to get mixed with a bit of diesel or chip fat and used to start bonfires.
