I was on a road trip for work a few weeks ago and told the wife to use the push mower to cut the lawn.It wouldn't start so she filled it up with gas.
Well, i decided to get some excercise and use the push this week.It wouldn't start so i used the trusty ether can and got it running,smoking a little but it's been sitting for 2 years.It ran ok but puffed a few times.After finishing the mower wouldn't shut off so well and smelled of kerosene.
I asked the wife what gas she put in it and she said the stuff in the blue container.
I know now that a gas engine will run on kerosene!![rolleyes.gif](http://www.cannondaleriders.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif)
