    How to fix Lawn-Boy Lawn Mower that won't start?

      Patrick CrawfordAug 5, 2025
      If your Lawn-Boy Lawn Mower engine won't start, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and the fuel is fresh. If that's not the problem, check that the throttle lever is in the Fast position and that you've pressed the primer three times. Also, make sure the wire is securely connected to the spark plug. Inspect the spark plug itself; if it's pitted, fouled, or the gap is incorrect, adjust or replace it. Additionally, check the fuse and replace it if blown. Finally, if your model has a battery, ensure it's adequately charged.
