Lawnmower safety...?

Is it safe to keep a gas powered lawnmower in your garage if you have a gas powered water heater? If there's fumes coming off the mower couldn't that be a hazzard with the pilot light from the heater?

    not a problem. the mower emits almost no fumes and they'll be much too dilute by the time they get to the pilot

    thats why there is a code that any gas burning appliance must have the burner area 18" above floor level for possible fuel vapor in a garage
