Manual for 909 118cc petrol lawnmower key start

probably the gasoline gummed up at bottom and needs to be cleaned. if the gas is not emptied when stored it can do this and will not start

Try flushing the diesel out of the system with 2stroke fuel, replace the spark plug and try restarting!

Electric start engines are designed to recharge the batteries while running.

I have a Mountfield HP 470 Petrol Mower 8 years old and I have started it the for the first time and it runs but seems to be hunting or missing as I cut the lawn.

I have the same mower and I have the choke assembly complete, I will take a picture for you if you want to show you what should be there? Mine wont start at the moment wondering wether its the magneto

your carburator is dirty inside.the needle and seat need to be replaced.the needle holds back the gas when it's not needed.hope this helped,just let me know................................

Caren,
Drain the fuel completely if it is older than 1 week. Make sure you undo the bolt at the bottom of the fuel bowl to ensure all old fuel is drained. Refill with fresh fuel (premium unleaded) and try again. If it still does not work then remove the spark plug and rest it on the metal of the mower while still attached to the silicone ignition wire. Have someone hold the cut out bar to the handle (as you normally would to run the motor) and pull the cord. You should see sparks being emitted from the spark plug. (Make sure there is no fuel nearby) If you cannot see any sparks then replace the spark plug with a new one and repeat this process. If you still cannot see any sparks being emitted after attatching the new plug to the silicone wire, resting it on the metal of the mower, and pulling the cord to start it as you normally would, the mower will need to have the resistor and capacitor checked by a professional repairer as no spark is being generated.

Good luck.
