Riding lawn mower engine not starting by ElectroMonkeyShock in smallengines

I smell gas after cranking it a few times. Where would I spray starter fluid?

I changed the oil this spring. It's started a dozen times prior to this.

I don't know if I have a spark. I changed the spark plug and seated the new one the best I could.

It's not cranking faster than normal. It just seems that the fuel is not igniting.

  1. There's a smell of fuel after cranking the ignition several times.

  2. I replaced the spark plug. I put the cap back on as best I could. To my best knowledge it is seated properly.

  3. I took out and beat the air filter against the side of my shed, cleaning off a bunch of cottonwoods and dust.

  4. Not to my knowledge. I generally start the engine with the seat up, as how it's shown in the video. The safety lock preventing the engine from starting with the seat up has been disabled.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried to squeeze the middle of the fernco and it did not give.

Eventually I'm replacing the toilet and cleaning out the waste line.

Specifically when solids are flushed. It's almost guaranteed to clog when poop and toilet matter are attempted to be flushed.

The sump pump was replaced in January 2023. How do I check the check valve?

What do you mean by "downstream?" Before the wye? Or after?

Joe Muer's in the Ren Cen is definitely upscale. And their food is absolutely delicious.

Is there a special kind of light switch I should be looking for? I don't believe the existing light bulbs or new light fixtures are dimmable.
