  If your Billy Goat Brush Cutter's engine won't start, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the throttle is in the fast position. If not, move it accordingly. Check the fuel level; if it's empty, fill the gas tank. Old or contaminated gasoline can also prevent starting, so drain the tank and refill with fresh gasoline. Inspect the spark plug wire to ensure it's connected. Lastly, a dirty air cleaner can be the culprit, so clean or replace it.
