Spring Tune-Up – Get Your Lawn Gear Ready for the Season

Intro:

Spring’s here — and that means it’s time to fire up the mower, trimmer, or pressure washer. But before you start pulling that cord or flipping that choke, you should know…

Most small engine issues start after winter storage — and a quick spring tune-up can save you time, money, and a whole lot of frustration.

Here’s what to check — and why Guerrilla Soundz is the 757’s trusted small engine repair shop to help you get it done right.

Why Spring Tune-Ups Matter

According to Consumer Reports, spring is the busiest season for mower breakdowns — mostly due to old gas, clogged carburetors, or oil issues that sat all winter1.

Regular tune-ups:

• Prevent early engine wear

• Improve fuel efficiency

• Make your gear last years longer

• Save you from surprise repairs mid-season

DIY Spring Tune-Up Checklist

1. Change the Oil
   Dirty oil thickens and breaks down after sitting for months.

2. Replace the Spark Plug
   Easy and cheap — this can prevent misfires and poor starts.
   

3. Check & Clean the Air Filter
   Dirty filters choke your engine. Foam filters can often be washed; paper ones should be replaced.
   

4. Empty Old Gas & Clean Carburetor
   Stale gas causes 80% of starting problems. Drain tanks and clean or replace the carb.
   

5. Inspect the Blades & Belts
   Dull blades and cracked belts reduce performance and increase strain on the engine.

6. Check Cables, Tires, and Linkages
   Make sure nothing seized, dried out, or corroded during winter.
