We use that damn thing in the winter to plow the drive, too. So, it still get used... Unless, we dis connect the battery and keep in the house when we're not using it.

That's looks like the prob, but I'll watch it again during lunch where I can turn the volume up.

that doesnt appear to be a battery issue. He kept turning the key, the engine kept cranking.
The video is titled "bad flywheel key"
she put on facebook that the starter spins but it won't start. the battery issue is a secondary concern at the moment. new starter, new solenoid, new battery, new plug. got to be a flywheel problem. thats what times the spark, or the teeth on the flywheel could be stripped, and the starter can't even turn the engine over.

So, the flywheel is the large or part of the large round part that spins, right? I had an owner's manual to the mower, but I am not sure what Jim did with it.

You seem to be surrounded by constant chaos.
My life is always chaos... I basically just go with the flow.

If you look carefully, you'll be able to see one constant...
Actually the chaos all starts from Jim. He says he is organized but he's lying. If I don't put things together he forgets... or it goes missing

I didn't know that was a real story until yesterday. Just something people kept saying in the 90s. Never really understood why.
My best friends boyfriend is from Australia... I used to say that to him all the time until he told me the story... I thought the same things as you... apparently I was wrong.

You have an employee other than that guy?
Which guy? Our coke headed driver Phil!? Phil got himself fired a long time ago... like a year ago. Now we only have one full time employee (sitting at the recycle) and 2-3 casual workers...

I'll even buy the pizza and beer for me and Jim while you paint.
I'm good at color matching between rooms. I pick the colors, paint them and then I get this "Are you sure that's not going to look like shit" then when it's done he's like "It's looks pretty good, glad you didn't fuck it up!"

After working at Canadian Tire and watching the amount of batteries come back that look like a balloon, I never leave a battery in a vehicle. In the wintertime they get removed and put on a shelf in our garage then the charger gets put them once a month at minimum
No worries people I'll just talk to myself.
