I have a '52 8N with a LandPride AT25 6' finish mower - that I use to mow a 2 acre pasture to run my dogs in. Takes about an hour. When I park in the barn I close the gas valve, disconnect the +ve end of the battery and connect the solar cell charger. (I've had problems w/ flat batteries - especially in winter.) Anyhow - tonight - I also opened the gas cap to check the level - and "Pshhhhhhhh..." - there was a great release of pressure and inside I could see the gas "boiling". Is this normal? Seems downright dangerous to me! Other info ... Outside temp is 85 - most of the mowing is done in 3rd gear - when I finish and park in barn there is some overflowing from the radiator. So - is this normal ? Thanks in advance Angus
