If it's a 10 year old Lawn Boy, there's a very good chance it has a 2-cycle engine. That means pre-mixed gas, and smelling like oil smoke afterwards.

Your neighbors will love it too--especially if you crank it up while they're having a cookout.

I had a Lawn Boy 2 stroke. Gas/oil ratio was 32:1. Two gallons of gas, and an 8 oz can of 2-cycle oil in a 3 gallon gas can. Shake well.
