The Smart Energy Design Assistance Center calculates that in 600 hours of use and with gasoline at $4.50 per gallon, a gas mower will use $3,200 worth of gasoline, whereas using an electric mower ...
The combustion cycle can be either two-stroke (which results in a lighter engine for a given power output) [3] [4] or four-stroke (which produce lower levels of exhaust gas emissions). [5] [6] The fuel is usually either petrol or diesel. [7] In 1973, a small Wankel (rotary) engine manufactured by NSU was used in a lawn mower. [8]
The Twin Cylinder Engine – This engine was introduced in 1977 as a means of competing with Briggs & Stratton's rivals, particularly Japanese firms like Honda who were cutting into traditional Briggs & Stratton markets by producing lawn mower engines (and later, complete lawn mowers). These first models were rated 16 hp (11.9 kW) and displaced ...
