Why won't my Husqvarna DRT 900 Tiller start?

  If your Husqvarna Tiller won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the fuel tank is adequately filled. Next, verify that the fuel valve is in the “ON” position and the engine switch is also set to “ON”. If the engine isn't choked properly, consult the “TO START ENGINE” section in the Operation section. If the engine is flooded, wait a few minutes before trying again. Other potential issues include a bad spark plug (replace or adjust the gap), a dirty air filter (clean or replace it), or water in the fuel (empty the fuel tank and carburetor, then refill with fresh gasoline).

  If your Husqvarna Tiller is hard to start, the throttle control might not be set properly; consult the “To Start Engine” section in the Operations section. Also, check the air filter and clean or replace it if it's dirty. A bad spark plug or improper gap can also cause this issue, so replace the spark plug or adjust the gap. Stale or dirty fuel could be the culprit; empty the fuel tank and refill it with fresh, clean gasoline. Finally, ensure the spark plug wire is seated properly.

  If your Husqvarna Tiller engine overheats, start by checking the oil level and changing the oil if it's low or dirty. Then, inspect the engine air screen and clean it if it's dirty. Also, clean any dirt from the cylinder fins, airscreen, and muffler area. If the muffler is partially plugged, remove and clean it.

  If the engine of your Husqvarna Tiller runs but labors when tilling, it might be tilling too deep. Set the depth stake for shallower tilling. Also, check the throttle control setting and adjust it if necessary.
