I may be in the market for a new lawn mower.

But, I have notice that evey mower (except for Hondas) have this bulb that
has to press at lease 3 times before starting the engine.

Why?


I have not looked at new lawnmowers, although I did just buy a new
Tecumseh engine. No primer bulb on it. The only primer bulbs I have on
equipment are on a few 2-cycle engines.
