So, if your Mountfield mower won`t start, make sure you have plenty of fresh fuel, no engine filters are blocked and that your spark plug is clean and secure. You can also carry out maintenance tasks that should help keep your mower in good condition before storing your mower for winter, which you can read about here.
It is likely that your Mountfield lawnmower will be powered by a 4-stroke engine. This means that the oil and petrol are stored within the machine in separate sections, eradicating the need for you to mix the two together.
Battery: Electrical energy stored in a battery provides a source of electrical power for starting the engine and a limited supply of electrical power for use in the event the alternator or generator fails.
A new spark plug may require around 10,000 volts to jump a . 030″ gap when the engine is cold.
Loose, Dirty or Disconnected Spark Plug in Your Lawn Mower: Check it out, clean off debris, re-connect and tighten. Dirty Air Filter: Clean or replace. Fuel Not Reaching the Engine: Tap the side of the carburetor to help the flow of gas. If this doesn`t work, you might need a new fuel filter.
Product details and specs. The Mountfield SP53H self-propelled lawn mower is powered by the Honda GCVx170 Autochoke 167cc OHV engine.
When you buy a Mountfield mower you are buying a quality machine that will provide you with years of service and reliability. Mountfield are one of the UK`s best selling makes of walk behind mowers, this is because of the quality and service they have offered over the years.
Spark plugs aren`t universal; you have to make sure that you buy one that fits your mower. You can consult your owners` manual to determine the types your lawn mower can use or take a look at the plug`s ceramic insulator, which usually has the number printed on it.
Check a Lawn Mower Battery With a Multimeter
These batteries are direct current (DC), so set the multimeter to read DC.
Thankfully, innovations in lawn mower technology have led to the development of electric battery powered mowers that are almost indistinguishable from gas powered mowers, at least in terms of power. For most of us, an electric mower is more than sufficient to maintain a standard sized lawn.

Lawn mower cranck but wont start…
ANSWER : Since you already checked for spark and air I would drain all the fuel out of it and check that fuel for water. Over time some lawn mowers end up with contaminated fuel. You can see the water sitting on the bottom of the fuel if you let it stand for a bit in a small plastic bowl.
Be sure to empty and dry out you fuel can as well. Especially if the mower stopped running right after a refuel. Which is a good sign your gas can is contaminated too.
