I was looking for a thread that showed some of our Oops moments, or mistakes. Well here's mine.


This Snapper Forest Gump Mower can be stood up on end. I stood it up in the fall of 2010. Yesterday I was talking to a guy who is looking for the plastic belt cover for the deck, I said, ”I have one, matter a fact I have a whole mower, I’ll deliver it to you tomorrow(today). I said it standing on end in the back of my shed.”

He says, “Yea, all you do is drain the oil, and take off the battery and stand it up.”

That’s when the hairs on the back of my head stood up as I thought hmm, oops…I don't remember taking the battery off. It was standing so I could only see the bottom of it, the blade etc. Made for a good laugh when I saw it this morning.
Here's the Mower - now in the back of my truck.

The Carb that needed rebuilding... Battery acid does wonders to a plastic carb.
