Why won't my Craftsman C410 start?
- MMelissa KnoxAug 7, 2025
If your Craftsman Tiller engine won't start, several factors could be the cause. It might be due to an empty fuel tank, so fill it with fresh fuel. Ensure you've pressed the primer bulb sufficiently—about 10 times, or until fuel is visible. Old fuel (over 30 days) can also prevent starting; drain the tank and add fresh fuel. Lastly, a fouled spark plug could be the culprit, in which case you should replace it.
