depending on the mower, It sounds like you have a bad needle and seat and it is letting straight gas run into the cylinder.

What are the pros and cons of choosing a gas mower over an electric mower?

Electric mowers are not as powerful as gas mowers, so choose according to your needs. A gas mower is more efficient in larger areas. While either mower should be regularly maintained, a gas mower requires more maintenance. You have greater range with a gas mower; an electric mower is quieter and non-polluting.

You removed a spark plug from your riding mower and gas came out is this normal?

It is not totally unusual. It should not happen though. It means that your carburetor is leaking gas through while the mower is not running. It will fill the cylinder and get into the oil. A quick fix is to get an inline gas shutoff valve and just shut off the gas when you are not using the mower. Otherwise you will need to rebuild the carburetor to fix the problem. You will also have to clear out all the gas from the cylinder and if it got into the oil you will need to drain and change the oil.

How do you tell if a lawn mower is a gas only or a gas oil engine?

A gas only engine has a spout where oil is added to the engine. If there is no spout, then it is a gas/oil engine. FYI - gas only engine is a four-stroke (four-cycle) engine and the gas/oil engine is two-stroke (two-cycle).
