Why won't my Simplicity Regent Lawn Mower engine turn over?
If your Simplicity Lawn Mower engine won't turn over or start, make sure the brake pedal is fully depressed. Also, ensure the PTO (electric clutch) switch is in the OFF position and cruise control is disengaged by moving the knob to the NEUTRAL/OFF position. Check your fuel level and refill if necessary, allowing a hot engine to cool first. If the engine is flooded, disengage the choke. Other potential issues include a blown fuse, discharged battery, or loose wiring, which may require professional assistance. Faulty safety interlock switches, water in the fuel, or old gas can also prevent starting.
