[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 4141418, member: 41777"] Nice meeting you Patti! I'm always glad to help someone out and the cookies were just icing on the cake. Ate one before getting to 23rd, another at 10th, the 3rd at Reno. Luckily I hit a red light at Reno and was able to put the entire bag in the passenger floorboard so couldn't reach! Thank you for the cookies and eggs! I'll go ahead and elaborate on me telling her to stay in her lane and WHY I didn't get clubbed with a shovel when I turned my back! Before going to her place yesterday, I put some gas in the tiller and started it to make sure all was good when I got there. Got there, had a little chit-chat, met the dog then got to work. Unloaded tiller and it started right up! YEAH BABY! Started tilling and got about 5 feet on the first row and it died. DAMN. Pulled and it started back up.....then died. So, I pulled the cord a few times with/without choke. Nothing. Patti had the nerve to ask the "girl question" - Does it have gas? I looked at her like she had 3 heads. Got out my extension cord since it has an electric start too. STILL wouldn't start. Sheepishly I had to look in the gas tank. SUMBEECH! Apparently it had a leak(no way I didn't put in enough gas). No way. Patti had a gas can and as I was filling it up I gave her a good chewing out about NEVER doing that to a man and she should stay in her lane and stick to baking cookies!! :bolt:Had a great laugh and each time I made a pass tilling I could see a little smirk on her face. I generally HATE being wrong but was okay with this one time. As much as I want to say there was a leak, it still had gas in the tank this morning so I just hadn't put in as much as I thought.
