Sears Mower won't start.....
Hello everyone...
I have a 5.5 Hp mower that ran out of gas. I filled it and now I can't get it started. I checked for gas at the carb. I also checked for spark. Tough to see but got it. Gas is new....Plug is clean, shiny and gapped at .030 as required. Help........Thanks |

(remove plug, leave lead attached, rest the plug body against the negine (DON'T HOLD IT!) and watch for a spark across the gap as you turn the engine). Could try removing the spark plug, pouring a thimblefull of petrol into the hole, and putting the plug back in - that sometimes brings mine to life after the winter storage. |
