Update on Elmo

Poor Elmo!  The new Lmo (lawnmower) has expired.  After about 2 hours of use, my husband started having trouble with it, and hearing little pieces of something inside the engine, like plastic pieces.  He changed the oil, the gas and the spark plug and cleaned the air filter (after only 2 hours of use!!) and nothing helped.  We were within the 30 day warranty, so poor Elmo was given a proper burial at Lowe's credit department.  We have decided to purchase a used one this time... sigh!  Sometimes, new isn't best.
