I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't do right by my lawn mower last Fall and just left it in the garage over the winter without doing any winter prep. It's warm enough today that I thought I'd drag it out and see if I could start it, and I couldn't after priming the engine and a few quick on the rope. What should I do at this point? The lawn mower is a Murray with a 4-stroke engine (model 20617A for those that care). I bought it used and didn't get a manual or anything like that with it.
As a follow up, what's the right way to put this machine away for the winter?
Thanks in advance,
