    My Troy Built mulching push mower refuses to start.
    I am trying to get my lawn and flower beds ready for the winter and I tried to start up my Troy-Built mulching lawn mower and it refuses to start. I have changed the gas, checked the oil, changed the air filter, checked the spark plug yet nothing is working.
