I couldn’t start my lawnmower yesterday. I don’t know anything about lawnmowers, really, but I figured if I took it apart I could maybe see what was wrong. I took it apart and couldn’t see what was wrong. When my wife asked me to show her, I reassembled it, but then it unexpectedly started up fine. Lawn-mowing accomplished!

I didn’t do anything…honestly I have no idea. I guess the lawnmower equivalent of “did you try turning it off and turning it on again” is “did you try taking it apart and putting it back together”!

    So many times I’ve taken things apart to “see what’s wrong” to no avail.

      I was 100% certain I was in this position when I removed basically all the screws I could see, and was like “well…i don’t know what I expected, but I have no idea what I’m looking at” lol
