Get Your Motor Running with the Right Sears Lawn Mower Parts
If your Sears lawn mower isn't running the way you think it should, take
the time to properly evaluate the problem so you will know which of your
Sears lawn mower parts need to be repaired or replaced. Sears lawn mower
parts for all models are available through the manufacturer and from
dealerships scattered throughout the United States. Before you make a phone
call or take a trip to your local Sears hardware store, figure out what's
really wrong and you'll save time in the long run.
Sears lawn mower parts need to be maintained with regularity. Observe basic
maintenance procedures outlined in your owners manual and be particularly
diligent during the growing season. There are some common problems that may
not even require replacement of Sears lawn mower parts.
If your lawn mower engine is hard to start, or if it doesn't run well once
you finally do get it started, evaluate the quality of gasoline in the tank.
Start every season out with a fresh tank of gasoline. Sears lawn mower parts
can be adversely affected by old gasoline. Use a plastic tank to carry and
store your gas because Sears lawn mower parts can be adversely affected by
bits of rust or other debris that can come from inside metal gas containers.
Never use old gas in your lawn mower. Before you put your lawn mower away
for the winter, run it out of gas.
Air filters are among the most common Sears lawn mower parts to need
replacement. If your engine is hard to start or if it runs poorly, clean -
or better yet, replace - the air filter. When the air filter gets clogged,
your engine can't breath. Can you imagine running all over your yard without
air? Keep a spare air filter on hand to avoid an inconvenient emergency trip
to the store.
If you have a fresh tank of gas and a new air filter and your lawn mower is
still hard to start or runs poorly, replace the spark plug. Sears lawn mower
parts like spark plugs need to be replaced more often if you are using a
poor fuel quality or don't properly maintain your air filter. Spark plug
specifications can be found in your owner's manual. Your lawn mower may need
a full tune-up to get it and keep in running at its peak. A tune-up includes
an oil change and this should be performed at the beginning of every season.
If your Sears lawn mower is not producing a clean cut, sharpen or replace
the blade. At the beginning of each growing season put "new blade" on your
list of seasonal Sears lawn mower parts to purchase. A dull blade will shred
your grass and could damage the roots or cause unsightly browning of the
tips of grass blades.
