Vibration in a walk behind mower is most always a imbalance in the blade , there lots of things that cause this , from loose blade , to bent blades
remove blade and test with blade balance , there not expensive ive seen them with a sharping stone for less than ten dollars before
pull spark plug before you remove blade 4 safety

Sounds like a clogged carb or a cracked primer bulb. I would install a carb rebuild kit and new primer bulb if your mower uses one.

Hi, The first thing I always check for is fresh fuel (less than a couple of months old) old unleaded may well be fine in your car but low compression engines fitted to garden equipment need fresh fuel. next thing to check is that the choke flap is closing fully, dont rely on the position of the control lever, remove the airfilter cover and see that the flap is fully closed, if it's cracked open just a little bit it will stop engine starting ( unless the filter is really dirty) another thing to check is that the blade is tightly secured, on direct drive mowers the blade acts as a flywheel. did you hit an obstruction the last time you used it, if you did you may have sheared the flywheel key(poor spark on points ignition or good spark but timing out of sync on electronic ignition. hope this helps, regards Tony (England UK)

take cover off the top off deck and see if your belt have came off next turn deck sideways but before you turn it sideways take air filter off cause oil can come through and ruin the filter noe look and make sure the belt is on the pully

Remove the belt cover, Remove the blade and blade adaptor. Remove belt guard and slip off old belt. Install new belt just like it was removed. Install parts and you should be good to go. Hope this helps
