Hello everyone,

I have a Troy Bilt lawnmower that the self-propeller stopped working. Can anyone give me specific information how I can repair the self-propeller myself? I am trying to save money, as most people are these days, so any insight given would be great.

Repairing power equipment often requres special tools and, in most cases, specialized experience. That is not an area to be experimenting in, especially when there will be several horsepower applied to the drive system. To stay on a budget, get help from someone who is mechanically inclined and has access to lots of tools. Power can be very dangerous, and if the drive system fails to disengage or the engine starts with the system engaged, it could cause injuries, property damage, or even fatalties! People get KILLED by defective power equipment almost every day. Leave this task to the experts! That's my two cents on this subject.
