Why won't my MTD 241 engine start?
- PPhilip HillJul 26, 2025
There are several reasons why your MTD Tiller engine might fail to start: * The spark plug wire may be disconnected. In this case, connect the wire to the spark plug. * The fuel tank may be empty or contain stale fuel. Refill the tank with clean, fresh gasoline. * The throttle control lever might not be in the correct starting position. Move the throttle lever to the start position. * The choke might not be in the ON position. Move the lever to the ON position. * The fuel line could be blocked. Clean the fuel line. * The spark plug may be faulty. Clean, adjust the gap, or replace it. * The engine may be flooding. Refer to the engine manual.
