Craftsman 247375910 lawn mower Parts

For the Craftsman 247375910 walk-behind mower, use fresh, clean unleaded gasoline; in normal conditions, 87 octane is the right choice and higher octane (like 91) does not improve performance. Follow the fueling and storage steps in the 247375910 owner's manual to avoid hard starting and fuel-system problems.

• Use unleaded gasoline.
• Use fresh, clean fuel; do not use gas left from last season.
• Do not mix oil with fuel (this is a 4-cycle mower engine setup).
• Avoid fuel that has been stored a long time; stale fuel can gum up the carburetor.
• If you store fuel in the tank for extended periods, use a fuel stabilizer and run the engine a few minutes to circulate it.

Gasoline is extremely flammable, so refuel with the same safety habits every time.

• Let the engine cool (the manual calls out about 2 minutes before refueling).
• Fill the tank to about 1/2 inch below the bottom of the filler neck (room for expansion).
• Tighten the cap securely and wipe up spills.
• If you spill fuel, move the mower away and wait for vapors to clear before starting.

Most “won’t start” and “runs rough” complaints trace back to stale fuel, contamination, or unsafe refueling practices, not octane rating. Using the right fuel and handling it correctly helps protect the carburetor, makes starting easier, and reduces downtime.

Common problems on the Craftsman 247375910 gas walk-behind mower are no-start conditions (fuel, spark, air), poor cut quality (dull or damaged blade), abnormal vibration after impact, and self-propel issues caused by debris or a worn drive belt. Our 247375910 owner's manual also stresses stopping the engine and inspecting immediately if vibration starts.

• Won’t start or starts then dies: old fuel, dirty carburetor, fouled spark plug, clogged air filter
• Hard to pull starter rope (kickback risk): pulling incorrectly, engine issue after impact, blade obstruction
• Vibrates or shakes: bent blade, loose blade hardware, damaged blade adapter, impact damage
• Uneven cut or poor mulching: dull blade, mowing wet or overly tall grass
• Won’t self-propel: debris in drive area, belt off pulleys, worn belt, drive control out of adjustment

1. Stop the engine, wait for the blade to fully stop, then disconnect and ground the spark plug wire.
2. Check for loose or missing hardware and tighten as needed.
3. Inspect the blade for bends, cracks, or heavy wear; replace if damaged.
4. For self-propel problems, clear packed grass and debris around the drive and transmission area.
5. If the mower sat with fuel, drain old gas and refill with fresh fuel.

The manual’s troubleshooting points to belt installation, debris, belt wear, and drive adjustment.

Ignoring vibration, a damaged blade, or a slipping drive system can quickly turn a small repair into bigger damage. The manual specifically treats abnormal vibration as a warning sign and calls for immediate inspection after striking an object.
