Why will my Allen Lawn Mower engine not start?

  If your Allen Lawn Mower engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the engine isn't under load by raising the height of cut. Next, check the fuel: if it's incorrect or contaminated, drain the tank and refill with the correct fuel. Also, make sure the spark plug lead is securely connected and the engine brake is released by operating the engine brake lever. Inspect the spark plug for faults, cleaning, adjusting the gap, or replacing it if necessary. Confirm the fuel tank is full and the throttle is set to the ‘start’ position.

  If your Allen Lawn Mower engine runs and then stops, the issue might stem from fuel delivery. Ensure the fuel tank is adequately filled to avoid fuel starvation. Check the fuel cap vent to make sure it is not blocked, and clean it if necessary. Also, verify that the fuel tap is open, if your model is fitted with one.

  If your Allen Lawn Mower engine is running rough, start by checking the spark plug lead to ensure it hasn't become disconnected during use; reconnect it if necessary. Inspect the spark plug itself for any faults, and clean, adjust the gap, or replace it as needed. Also, see if the air cleaner is blocked and service it if it is. Finally, check the fuel quality; if it's incorrect or contaminated, drain the tank and refill with the correct fuel.

  If your Allen Lawn Mower vibrates excessively, check and tighten any loose mounting bolts. Also, inspect the cutterbar bolt and tighten if necessary. If the vibration persists, the cutterbar may be out of balance and require balancing. If these steps do not resolve the issue, it is possible that the crankshaft is bent; in this case, consult your dealer.
