New Poulan lawnmower will start but won't run, what's going on?
We recently bought a Poulan lawnmower and have used it twice before and it ran fine. This time, the mower started up, but won't continue running. We've used the same type of gas at the right mixture, so gas can't be the issue. And taking it back would be hard, as you would have to prove that it was a manufacturer defect, which can be difficult.

EMail the customer service at the Poulan Co. I have used this method for other problems & it was very helpful. Lots of luck! You shouldn't have any prob as it is still under warranty.
