What to do if my Echo Edger engine cranks but doesn't start?
- MMrs. Janice MillerJul 26, 2025
If the Echo Edger engine cranks but doesn't start, several factors could be at play. It might be due to an incorrect spark gap, carbon buildup, fuel fouling, or a defective plug; in this case, adjust the spark gap to .65mm (0.026in.), or clean/replace the plug. Alternatively, the fuel mixture might be too rich, so open the choke, clean/replace the air filter, or adjust the carburetor. Other potential causes include a clogged fuel strainer or fuel line, and a faulty stop switch, electrical problem, or interlock switch. For carburetor issues, electrical problems, or interlock switch problems, it is recommended to see your Echo dealer.
