    Lawn Mower won't start
    I have a Murray riding lawn mower. I used it this morning and after lunch I wanted to finish. I took 1 turn around the house and it died. Now it won't start. It has gas, and oil. It sounds like it wants to start. The battery is a new one.

    You need fuel, spark(at the right time), and compression. I would check spark plug, fuel and air filters.

    If You Have Spark, Check The Gas. Did You Maybe Refuel Right After Lunch When The Engine Had Cooled , Then Started Mowing And It Died? If So You May Have Water In Your Fuel Tank, Remove Carb. Bowl, Clean , Reassemble And Try Again.
