[DIY] Lawn mower starting

 

I have a walk-behind lawnmower that won't start unless I spray a little starting fluid in the air intake.

I've read elsewhere on the web that doing this can harm a lawn mower's engine and would appreciate any thoughts about that claim.

Money is tight and I'd rather not take the mower to a repair ship, especially since it runs fine after I get it started with the starting fluid.

I've changed the air filter and spark plug but that doesn't help.  I don't feel capable of cleaning the carburetor.

The lawn mower is a Craftsman with a Honda engine..

Thanks,

Terry
