    Why is my Craftsman 247.203691 engine running erratically?
    • R
      Ryan DavisAug 12, 2025
      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower engine runs erratically, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the choke is activated and deactivate it. Ensure the spark plug wires are securely connected. A blocked fuel line or stale fuel can also cause this issue; replace the fuel line, use fresh gasoline, and replace the fuel filter. The vent in the gas cap might be plugged, so clear it or replace the cap if damaged. Water or dirt in the fuel system can also be a factor; drain the fuel tank and refill with fresh gasoline. Lastly, a dirty air cleaner can cause erratic running, so replace the air cleaner paper element or clean the foam pre-cleaner, if your mower has one.

    What causes an uneven cut with my Craftsman Lawn Mower?

      Maria WalkerAug 16, 2025
      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower is giving an uneven cut, it might be because the deck isn't leveled properly; perform a side-to-side deck adjustment. A dull blade can also cause this, so sharpen or replace it. Finally, check the tire pressure in all four tires, as uneven pressure can contribute to an uneven cut.

      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower is vibrating excessively, it could be due to a loose or unbalanced cutting blade, so try tightening the blade and spindle. Alternatively, the cutting blade may be damaged or bent, in which case you should replace it.

      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower engine is overheating, it could be due to a low engine oil level. Fill the crankcase with the correct amount and weight of oil. Alternatively, airflow might be restricted. Clean any grass clippings and debris from around the engine’s cooling fins and housing.

    Why isn't my Craftsman 247.203691 Lawn Mower mulching grass?
    • M
      Marissa CaseSep 3, 2025
      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower isn't mulching grass effectively, make sure the engine speed is set high by placing the throttle in the FAST position. Avoid mulching when the grass is wet. If the grass is excessively high, mow once at a higher cutting height, then mow again at the desired height, or reduce the cutting swath. Also, check the blade; a dull blade should be sharpened or replaced.

      Joshua TylerNov 8, 2025
      If your Craftsman Lawn Mower engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, make sure the PTO/Blade Engage lever is disengaged (OFF). Check that the parking brake is engaged. Ensure the spark plug wires are correctly connected. Position the Throttle/Choke lever to FAST, or move it to the Choke position to activate it. The fuel tank may be empty or contain stale fuel; if so, refill with fresh gasoline (less than 30 days old). A blocked fuel line could also be the culprit, requiring replacement of the fuel line and filter. Inspect the spark plugs—they may need cleaning, gap adjustment, or replacement. If the engine is flooded, crank it with the throttle in the FAST position. Check for blown fuses and replace them if necessary. Finally, ensure all safety switches are properly en...
