What do you mean, churned in a fuel can?

Mix it according to instructions in the fuel can/jug being used, then gently shake the fuel/jug around to mix it (churn it).

Sometimes my Southern vocabulary is not quite understood. LOL

Will it clean the carb ?

I would not expect anything immediate, but I have seen it work. Run it and get the fuel mix down in the carburetor well, then let it set and see if it works its magic.

Heet allows the fuel and water to mix so that a tiny amount of water can be burned with the gas. Heet will not overcome large amounts of water. The label says one once of Heet per gallon.

I would say your mower with 30 hours on it has either older gas, or gas with water in it, and possibly needs a carburetor cleaning as well for it to run 100% right.

Seafoam contains 4 main ingredients, with one of them being the same as Heet. People love taking shortcuts in life, but they often don’t work.

One of the downsides to buying from a big box store is lack of service after the sale. You are just a number to them, and a customer for the local small engine shop.

Will do. Do you know of a good mower mechanic, reasonable rates?

I have taken care of my neighbor's machines and mine....two stroke or four. I do it for free because we all have a lot of yard and last year one of them took their Zero Turn to a shop and they just never got to it in 4 weeks. I mowed their lawn for free, too. Hell to cut if it gets too long. They went and got it and I fixed it in an afternoon. Simple. The other neighbor had a weed whacker that someone before had really butchered on a repair to the clutch. Fixed that but took about a week to get the new clutch off Ebay.

Anyway...I'm not advertising just sometimes I have some time to look at something....for free.
