I'm curious about the fuel mix-up. What engine do you have and what fuel was put in it by mistake?


Chainsaw mix. It screws up my mower. This time however, just cleaning out the tank and carb didn't resolve the issue. I had to take it in because I don't have time nor patience to horse around with it...


Chainsaw mix is very unlikely to cause a serious problem in a four stroke cycle engine. A four cycle engine may smoke a little with it but it should run the engine fine and not cause any damage other than possibly a little carbon build-up. I think you are going to find you have another problem unrelated to the fuel. Now regular gasoline run in a chainsaw without oil is a different story. That will cause total engine destruction.


That's what I was thinking too.

Glad the neighbor stepped up and helped.

I cut mine and my cousin's yesterday, good thing because it's storming here now

Actually pretty typical for Utah. A really great place to live.

I have to agree with this! We were just away for a week and my neighbor noticed a bad sprinkler leak, they called the repair guy, had it done and paid him.

You can never appreciate having a good neighbor enough until you’ve experienced having a not-so-good neighbor.


"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
