First step, check the fuel tank to make sure there is enough fuel to operate your lawn mower. You should see fuel slosh around. Second step, check the spark plug. A wet plug means there’s fuel going through the fuel system and there may be an issue with the ignition. A dry plug means there may be an issue with the fuel system. A common issue is a clogged carburetor from stale gas. Using a fuel stabilizer keeps fuel fresh and the carburetor from gumming and varnishing. Third step, check the ignition system with a spark tester. Step four, replace the spark plug and reconnect the spark plug wire. If your lawn mower still doesn’t start you should consider taking it in for service. Briggs & Stratton has over 12,000 servicing dealers in our network.
