How do I ready my riding lawn mower for winter storage?

I bought a Sears Craftsman riding mower this past summer. I have been working a lot in the last 2 weeks, so I havent really had time to do whatever I am supposed to do to make it run next spring after sitting in the cold garage all winter. What should I do to my lawn mower to store it for the winter months and make it start again in the spring?


Remove battery store in warm place above freezing charge it once every 8 weeks, put in a gas treatment for storage like sta-bil don't drain gas that may dry gaskets and corrode carborator parts and/or rust tank make sure to run 15 min to get treated fuel into carborator bowl. scrape dryed grass from under mower deck and spray with oil WD-40

My riding lawn mower will not start. What could be the problem?

I tried a new battery.Still nothing. It isn't turning over at all. I really know nothing about small engines. could it be the spark plug? Any help other than telling me to buy another riding lawn mower would be appreciated. Thank you.


Yes, it could be the spark plug. It's not the battery, since you just replaced that. You also might want to check your wiring connections: Sometimes tightening something that's loose will do the trick.

Good luck!

My riding lawn mower cuts the grass unevenly. How do I adjust it?

I have a Craftsman TS1000 riding lawn mower and my son ran over a large rock that damaged one of the two blades. After replacing the damaged blade, the lawn mower cuts unevenly. I put the lawn mower on a level surface and can see that the mower deck is uneven, but I don't know how to adjust it. Can you help me?


There are adjusters on each side of the deck. Put the mower on a level surface and you can screw/unscrew them to level the deck. Also, make sure the air pressure in the tires are correct. That's one of those overlooked problems that can cause an uneven cut.

What brand and model of 2008 or 2009 riding lawn mower is the most dependable for mowing a large yard?

Can you recommend a brand and model of a riding lawn mower that is safe, dependable and has a smooth ride. We have a large yard (2 acres) and my husband has had a back injury.

We have a tractor but need a riding lawn mower to cut grass around the house. Which tractor will hold up with heavy use and be comfortable to operate.


According to the first link below, the John Deere X304 is the best lawn tractor overall.

Second link is price...seems pretty typical though this particular model isn't at Lowe's. Didn't look at Home Depot.

We got an old, second hand Craftsman from a customer. That rider was used on MANY big lawns while hubby had his lawn maintenance business. It was used for 5-6 years before it quit. I wish it was still working!

Speaking only for myself, I'd look into a Craftsman. I'm not fond of Sears, but I loved riding it and miss her sorely as we now have 3 acres!

My grandfather is a Snapper fan for as long as I can remember. He bought a blue lawnmower about a year ago that turned on a dime. After 1 summer he decided to get rid of it. He said it wasn't as pretty of a cut as the Snapper. He said it bounces to much.
