Why my Craftsman 944.362292 does not start?
- P
  phillipscrystalAug 13, 2025
  Your Craftsman Lawn Mower might not be starting due to several reasons: a dirty air filter, an empty fuel tank, stale or contaminated fuel, a disconnected spark plug wire, a bad spark plug, a loose or broken blade adapter, the control bar not being depressed, a defective control bar, the fuel valve lever being in the OFF position, a weak battery, or a disconnected battery connector. To resolve this, you can try cleaning or replacing the air filter, filling the fuel tank with fresh gasoline, connecting the spark plug wire, replacing the spark plug, tightening the blade bolt or replacing the blade adapter, depressing the control bar, replacing the control bar, turning the fuel valve lever to the ON position, charging the battery or connecting the battery to the engine.

  If the starter rope on your Craftsman Lawn Mower is hard to pull, it could be due to the engine flywheel brake being engaged when the control bar is released, a bent engine crankshaft, a broken blade adapter, or the blade dragging in the grass. Try depressing the control bar to the upper handle before pulling the starter rope, replacing the blade adapter, or moving the lawn mower to cut grass or to a hard surface.

What to do if my Craftsman 944.362292 loss of power?
- C
  Crystal MejiaAug 21, 2025
  If your Craftsman Lawn Mower is losing power, it could be due to several factors. The rear of the mower housing or blade might be dragging in heavy grass, you might be cutting too much grass at once, the air filter could be dirty, there might be a buildup of grass and debris under the mower, there could be too much oil in the engine, or you might be walking too fast. Consider raising the cutting height, cleaning the air filter, cleaning the underside of the mower housing, checking the oil level, or cutting at a slower pace.

  An uneven cut with your Craftsman Lawn Mower can be caused by a worn, bent, or loose blade, uneven wheel heights or a buildup of grass and debris under the mower. You can replace the blade, tighten the blade bolt, set all wheels at the same height, and clean the underside of the mower housing.

  If your Craftsman Lawn Mower is hard to push, it could be because the grass is too high, the wheel height is too low, the rear of the mower is dragging, the grass catcher is too full, or the handle height is not right for you. Try raising the cutting height, adjusting the rear of the mower housing, emptying the grass catcher, or adjusting the handle height.

  If the grass catcher is not filling on your Craftsman Lawn Mower, it could be because the cutting height is too low, the lift on the blade is worn off, or the catcher is not venting air. Try raising the cutting height, replacing the blade, or cleaning the grass catcher.
