Why won't my Powersmart PS4531 engine start?
- KKelly PrestonJul 28, 2025
If your Powersmart Brush Cutter's engine won't start, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the engine ON/OFF switch is engaged. Check that the spark plug wire is securely connected. If the fuel tank is empty or contains stale fuel, refill it with clean, fresh gasoline. Try pressing the primer bulb to prime the engine. Inspect the spark plug for faults and clean, adjust the gap, or replace it if necessary. A blocked fuel line could also be the culprit, so clean it. Finally, if the engine is flooded, wait a few minutes before attempting to restart it, and avoid priming it this time.
