Petrol lawnmower issues 08:58 - Aug 5 with 1573 views | waynekerr55 | Morning chums, My petrol lawnmower starts and then cuts out almost immediately. I've partially solved the issue by not fully pulling the throttle back until it's been going a couple of minutes. Any suggestions as to why this is happening? | ![](/images/avatars/8681.gif) |

Would any additives help (like Redex) or are they a Red Herring? | ![](/images/avatars/8681.gif) |

Petrol lawnmower issues on 17:47 - Aug 5 with 1416 views | howenjack | sounds like too rich a mixture have you done a plug reading? Could also be a short on the HT lead or a bad connection , check your wiring . Might be gasket failure and loss of compression ?? Changing the spark plug might improve things certainly wouldn't do any harm start with that make sure gap is correct too. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
