Why won't my Briggs & Stratton Portable Generator start or runs rough?
- RRebecca MooreAug 1, 2025
There are several reasons why your Briggs & Stratton portable generator might not start or runs roughly. It could be due to a missing or blown 15 Amp fuse, so install a new one. The fuel supply might be off, restricted, or depleted, so open the fuel valves and check the propane tank. Another reason might be a failed battery, which requires replacement, or a clogged air filter, which needs cleaning or replacement.
