Default help - can't crank lawnmower - need to mow

Hi all,

Thinking that Fall was here and I wouldn't need to mow the grass
anymore, I stopped paying my lawn service. Now I've tried to crank my
lawn mower (3 years old) and it won't crank. I've replaced the spark
plug and filled it with gas. THe oil looks good so I didn't touch
that. And the mower still won't crank. This is Briggs & Stratton
motor, 6hp, throttle-free and the manual says not to use any starting
fluid. Anyone have any suggestions? My HOA may be sending me a
notice soon to cut my grass!

BTW, I had used some of that "fuel-saver" stuff (for when you put a
lawn mower up for an extended period of time), but I guess it didn't
help me. Anyone know of any "small engine" places in Durham or
surrounding area that I could get some help at?

Thanks,

PV
