I realize I am talking apples and oranges here, but back when I was "young and dumb" (as opposed to old and dumb) I bought a $29.95 store brand mower. Had a Clinton motor on it and the mower came partially assembled in a box. Of course I was in a hurry to get it going, so as I was putting the wheels and handle bar on it, I asked my young wife to open the oil fill cap and see if it came with oil in it. She said it had oil, so I gassed and started it up and started mowing. Within a few minutes, it started lugging down and died. Right away I knew what happened... no oil. I yelled at my wife to bring a quart of oil, while I pulled the plug wire and kept slowly pulling on the starter rope... luckily it was not totally seazed up. I added the oil and kept pulling the rope until it turned easy, put the wire back on and started it. That mower ran great as long as I owned it, maybe 5 -6 years, sold it to a neighbor on a garage sale and he used it for probably another 10 years... it may still be running somewhere. You may have gotten as lucky as I did.
