  Your Troy-Bilt Tiller engine might not start due to several reasons. The fuel tank could be empty, so fill it with fresh fuel. Ensure you've pressed the primer bulb 10 times. Old fuel (over 30 days) can also prevent starting, so drain the tank and add fresh fuel. A fouled spark plug could be the culprit, and replacing it might solve the issue. Finally, if the engine is hot, refer to the 'IF... THE ENGINE IS HOT' instructions in the Starting and Stopping section.
