  Several factors can prevent your Craftsman Lawn Mower engine from starting. Ensure the blade control is engaged, the spark plug boot is connected, and the fuel tank has clean, fresh gasoline. Also, make sure the engine is primed, the spark plug is in good condition, and the fuel line is clear. If the engine is flooded, wait a few minutes before restarting without priming.

  If your Craftsman Lawn Mower isn't mulching grass effectively, it might be due to wet or excessively high grass, or a dull blade. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet and cut excessively high grass in stages, first at a higher setting and then at the desired height. Sharpen or replace the blade to improve mulching performance.
