  If your Murray Lawn Mower engine won't start, several factors could be the cause. Ensure the brake pedal is fully pushed down. Check if the fuel tank is empty; if so, let a hot engine cool before refilling. Make sure the PTO lever is in the OFF position. If the engine is flooded, disengage the choke. A discharged or dead battery may also be the culprit, so charge or replace it. Finally, visually inspect the wiring for any loose or broken connections; if found, consult an authorized service center.

  If your Murray Lawn Mower engine stalls easily when engaged, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the engine speed is set to FAST throttle. Second, reduce your ground speed. Also, if the Height-of-Cut is set too low, raise it, especially when cutting tall grass for the first pass. Finally, allow the engine to warm up for several minutes after starting.

  If the engine of your Murray Lawn Mower runs but the rider won't drive, it might be because the transmission is in neutral. Depress the brake and move the shifter lever into a forward gear. Alternatively, the parking brake might be engaged, so disengage it.
