A lawn mower typically runs on either gasoline or electricity. Gas-powered mowers use internal combustion engines that burn fuel to generate mechanical energy, while electric mowers operate on batteries or are plugged into an electrical outlet, converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. Some modern mowers also utilize renewable energy sources, such as solar power.
You may want to check your manual for your particular mower. I used 30 weight oil in my old mower circa 1978.
wouldn't it run on gas or am i wrong
No, its need fuel
it will probably explode or it will burst into flames either or its bad
A small push mower. A Lawn Boy Mower is best for hilly slopes because they don't have any oil in the bottom like a 4 stroke - the 4 strokes run out of oil if you run them on a hill, but the Lawn-Boys are 2 stroke.

Build a ramp. Get a good long run at it.
Yes i believe so i did it...i tied my lawn mower to a rope that was tied to a pole and it went around in circles while i was gone
It won't run on pure deisel.
Oil is a lubricant that helps to keep an engine running. If a person runs a lawn mower without oil, the mower will run, but it will cause problems like stalling out, or worse. +++ Its engine will run, but only for a very short time before seizing, probably ruining it.
If the lawn mower is run without oil, the connecting rod bearing will heat and score, or even "weld" to the crankshaft, causing major damage.
Lawn mowers are available as electrically powered or gas powered. For an electrically powered mower, the question gets a bit messy. Sure the mower itself is using electricity, but then there's the question where that electricity is coming from. Might be solar, nuclear, hydro, wind or even chemical energy that was used to generate the electricity. For a gas powered mower, it's easier - that's chemical energy. There are also the human-powered, hand-pushed mowers. They would be powered by humans, which are powered by chemical energy. Stored Energy (Electricity, Petrol) to Kinetic Energy (Movement) with the by-product of heat energy.
