Q: Why will the lawn mower string not pull?

• <div><p>There are a few reasons why a lawn mower cord won&rsquo;t pull, including an engine jam, a tangled cord, a broken recoil starter, or poor maintenance. To troubleshoot, turn the mower off. Then, inspect the cord, look for any tangles, and gently pull it to identify where the resistance starts. If you&rsquo;re not seeing any obstructions, you may need to call in a professional for repairs.</p></div>

Q: Do services include blade sharpening?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to fix a lawn mower pull cord?

• <div><p>Replacing a lawn mower pull cord yourself should only cost you the supplies, which comes to around $25. For more complex repairs, you&rsquo;ll need to get a quote from a local lawn mower repair shop.</p></div>

Q: Why is my lawn mower smoking?

• <div><p>Sometimes dark smoke trailing out of your lawn mower is the result of excess oil. It smokes as it burns off. Other times, it could signal a problem with the combustion or contaminated fuel. If changing the fuel and cleaning your mower doesn&rsquo;t help, call a professional (especially if the smoke is white).</p></div>
