Question: What care can I give my lawn mower in spring to ready it for mowing season?
Answer: Clean the spark plugs in lawn mowers (also spelled "lawnmowers") every spring. If the spark plugs are showing wear, don't even try to clean them -- just replace the spark plugs. When you're replacing a lawn mower's spark plugs, apply some anti-seize compound to the new ones to facilitate spark-plug removal next spring.
