PB,
the fact you use 98 in your lawn mower is hilarious (i too am guilty!)

98 Octane stores for longer before it goes "stale" so there is good logic for fuel that is not used quickly - mind you I think 95 is almost as good.

Either the pump is severely in need of calibration or your container has swelled - was it a plastic jerry-can?

Pat, did the receipt say how many litres was pumped?

On the grounds of what WGB said, 10L would be less than full, especially on plastic jerry's.

Hang on - "I used to run my old lawn mower off a BBQ cylinder (lpg) a 9kg cylinder would keep the lawns mowed for about a year."  ya what!!!  How?

What killed it in the end was the starter cord ripping and i got fed up starting it with a drill.

hahaha...man i have tears rolling down here. that is too funny.
anyway my half a dollars worth of inflationary 2 cents is to take the said jerry can and go back and refill and if its not right take it up with owner and tell the papers and all and sundry and create a big hulaballo
