  If your Craftsman Snow Blower engine fails to start, there are several potential causes: * The choke might not be in the CHOKE position; if so, move it to the CHOKE position. * The spark plug wire could be disconnected; connect the wire to the spark plug. * The fuel tank may be empty or contain stale fuel; fill the tank with clean, fresh gasoline. * The engine might not be primed; prime it as instructed in the Operation section. * The spark plug could be faulty; clean, adjust the gap, or replace it. * The key may not be fully inserted into the ignition; insert the key fully into the switch.
