when you tip the lawnmower on its side( to change the blade etc) you have to make sure the petrol cap is above the oil cap,( usually top of mower pointing to the right when youre standing by the handle) otherwise the oil will get into the petrol tank, drain the petrol out and refill with fresh petrol, ridiculous but true
