    Starting a Murray Mower
    A neighbor loaned me his Murray Mulching Mower while he went on an extended vacation. He showed me something special that I had to do (besides squeezing the safety bar down to the handle) while pulling the starter cord. I thought it had something to do with the engine drive lever, but now I'm not sure. The first time I used it, no problems. But this time, I can't get it to work. What an I doing wrong?

    I Don't Completely Understand What Is Not "working".
    Is It Turning The Engine Over When You Pull The Rope?
    Does It Have A Primer Bulb?
    I Need More Info And Will Be Glad To Try And Help.

    They may be a primer bulb that has to be pressed to start. You might have to press it about 6-8 times.
