Why my DR SCOUT FIELD and BRUSH MOWER Lawn Mower engine will not start?

If your DR Lawn Mower engine won't start, there are several things to check: * Ensure the spark plug wire is attached. * Confirm the key is in the START position. * If the engine is cold, push the primer bulb 3 to 4 times. * The gas must be fresh and clean; change it if old and use a fuel stabilizer if storing gas longer than a month. * Check the throttle adjustment and travel. * The Blade Engagement Control Lever must be in the down position. * Make sure the spark plug is clean; replace it if dirty or cracked. * If the spark plug is oily, remove it, cover the plug hole with a rag, and pull the recoil cord several times to clear any oil from the cylinder, then wipe the plug and reinsert it. * Ensure all wiring is connected and connections are tight.
