0 My father has a Poulan mower like yours, and the major problem I discovered shortly after my first use is the gas cap allows debris into the tank, which clogs the intake tube, making the carburetor go rich, and then swing back lean, leading to excessive fuel consumption. Use some sort of a suction bulb or vacuum tester to draw out the contaminated gas and rubber band a coffee filter over the cap, and you should be set. DO NOT put a piece of coffee filter under the cap above the cardboard, it will get splashed with gas and stall the engine. Trust me on this one. After I did this, fuel use dropped back in line with their old mower.
