My dad found the above mower and got it to start on 1 pull and amazingly, it ran well. Though, there seems to be some kind of throttle problem. First, he noticed that it sucked gas like crazy. Then I changed the spark plug and air filter. I then drained the oil, or so I thought (it was oil that came out from where you add it) and after putting new oil, it was still black and watery? I then found the drain plug underneath and just drained it. Again, it was watery and black? It leaves me scratching my head. How can it be watery and black for that matter, I just changed it!!!!!
So, aside from the possibility of the carb being dirty, does it really matter what kind of oil I use? I was thinking, I have some Mobil 7500 Clean 5W30, you think that would be ok and could possibly clean up the engine a bit?
