Tines not turning
I had the same problem, the engine ran but the tines would barely move on my Ryobi tiller. There were 2 plugs on the gear box. I removed them with an Allen wrench and added oil until it leaked out, replaced the plugs, waited awhile and started it.That fixed the problem, it worked fine.

there are shear bolts that hold the tines on. they are designed to snap when u hit something big such as a big rock or pipe or something like that. they are designed to snap at so much pounds of pressure so u dont break any gears or gearshafts. a lot of times people dont realize this and put regular screws or bolts in it and run it. when they hit something they ussually snap the gearshaft inside the tiller. i have replaced this on my fathers tiller cause he did the same thing. so either u might need to put new shear bolts in or if u had a regular bolt in u probably snapped a gear shaft or a gear.
