My Craftsman 917.388853 6.5 HP 21" push mower (Consumer Reports Best Buy in
2005) came with this "fancy" gas cap that supposedly "preserved the gas".
After a couple of seasons, the fancy gas-preserving cap couldn't preserve
itself, and it broke into pieces. I just put a gas-can cap on. It fit. But
the engine kept quitting after a while. So I loosened it up when I was
cutting the lawn.
I'm curious WHAT is the difference between a gas-can cap and a lawn mower
gasoline tank cap? (The threads are the same.)

gas can caps are non vented designed to seal and not let vapors in or
out........
mower caps are vented so as gasoline is used air can enter the tank,
otherwise the engine will quit after awhile stareved for fuel.
how do i know this? many many years ago my mowers vent cap
malfunctioned and quit venting.
engine would run for awhile then quit. i would check gasoline level
put back cap mower would run again for awhile then quit.....
what the heck? thats when i learned about gasoline cap venting:)

I think you need a slave, or at least a robot.
My pocket pets do this for me:
1- The keets sing,
2- They are colorful,
3- They inspire me to go outside where they go into ecstasy,
4- The mice inspire me to work out, but my bicycles are out of the
question, so I go into deep sleep in the hammock.

There is, there is... One reason is that birds around here are
terrorized or nowhere to be found because the feral cats are fed by
crazy ladies.
Solution? So many hungry people in the world don't know about the
protein value of cats. Do they have cats in Somalia or Haiti?

Yeah, trick is to use a dead-blow hammer and have the motor suspended
by the flywheel. A couple of stout sticks under the flywheel will do
that.

Based on what? I've never seen one put up that little fight, but am
open to the possibility.
Perhaps that Canuk has talent.
Tapers are as much VooDoo as skill, I've seen really capable people
walk up and drop a tie-rod or ball joint & even a small engine
flywheel with a flick of the wrist, that someone else has been slaving
over for hours.

IME, it came off easy, because it is a horizontal crank _and_ the
shear key was not sheared (you can still see in the crank key way).
When the key shears it binds the flywheel and crank shaft. IOW,
harder to get off for those without a "puller". It can be done.
Once I popped a flywheel on a vertical shaft: placed a 2 ba fer on the
nut and whacked it with a hammer.

The method has been in operation so long that tools are made, and
speciality items are sold. And the process is reccomended by folks who
know.

I too made an income from the internet for a couple of years. I even
declared this income to the Canadian government and they allowed me to
legally deduct all my relevant expenses including a portion of my rent and
automobile use and they refunded every penny of sales tax I ever paid while
conducting home based business. Because I declared self-employment income
this allowed me the option to collect social services provided by the
government should things turn sour, which they did not.
The internet provides a global market and can allow a smaller overhead for
self-employment operations esp. when job prospects are bleak. Your income
may be lower but it's still an income.

He's retired, single, into fitness, in rarely home, likes outdoor

I would have thought lawyers in AZ would be lining up to defend pro
bono.
The government has abdicated its responsibility to protect the borders
and regulate immigration. The case should be thrown out of court. Only
a government lawyer would have a hard time understanding that.
Law - I have a tough time recognizing a profession that frequently
tries to get the guilty declared innocent.

Agreed. As a libertarian, I can't for the life of me figure out how it
is wrong to expect people to prove they are here legally before they
are allowed to suck from the public teat. Or do anything else, for
that matter. And for the people who say it's discrimination because
only "brown people" will be asked for ID, that's ridiculous. If this
law were passed in MA, then they'd be stopping all the Irish Colleens
asking for ID, and they'd find a LOT of illegals. Sure, the illegal
Irish students whose visas ran out tend to pay their own way and not
live on the dole, but they're still not paying taxes on their
bartending pay, either. And they'd be happy to do so, if allowed.
I don't understand why ALL states don't REQUIRE proof of legal status
BEFORE providing services. Don't have a green card? Then you can't get
your kids in school, can't get welfare, can't get treated at a
hospital, etc. And, any employer caught employing/paying illegals
should go to jail. Period. What's wrong with that? How is that
"discriminatory"? If you're not here legally, you should be deported.
However, I also think that anyone who wants to come here and pay their
own way, including taxes, should be allowed to do so, assuming he/she
is not a criminal. You know, the way it was 100 years ago.

So you had a ton of these dumped in your driveway. Of course you
determined what they may have been treated with so you won't be losing
brain cells to the fumes.
