You don't need to buy oil.  This is 2021 dude.  If it is leaking or burning oil then it is not environmentally safe, you should go buy a new mower with fresh oil in it, and throw that old POS away.  

Always mow in shrinking squares until you have enough room on all sides to turn around....then finish off by going back & forth in straight lines.   Just like your Dad taught ya.     

Or you can do it LGBT style.... By rounding off the corners and then go roundy-roundy-round.....leaving a single dandelion in the center unmowed, as a visual guage for when to mow again.  

I have my wife alternate with diagonal.  Diamond pattern.

I set my blade height/sync, and tire pressure so precise that it doesn't matter which direction you cut from, no pattern is discernable.  😎 

It's called the "Badminton cut".  🤟

We’ve played pickle ball and like it a lot.  I dislocated a hip playing badminton once😁.  My wife lies and says she wins.  I tell her she whines too much because I don’t hit it right to her.  No prisoners😂

The only diamond patterns my wife is familiar with are on her fingers.

Yes sir!   We play some serious cut-throat badminton around here.  I'm already down 1 game to the middle kid (whom I cut NO SLACK), and 2 games to the youngest (whom I am about to stop cutting slack), so far this season. 

All customers who think they want a piece of it....so far.....have been promptly skunked.  😁

My kids are in their 20’s and 30’s.  I can’t beat them anymore.  I still trash talk em though.  Remind them of when they were young and would cry.  😂
