it has to be spark or no fuel feed remove spark plug lezaving spark plug wire check for spark if you have spark then you know it iseither fuel filter or carburator 9 out of 10 times carb needs cleaning

Try taking the fuel jet out and blowing out the little hole that goes through it. Just a little bit of dirt will not let the engine run. While you got the jet out take the fuel bowl off and clean that as well. Be careful and don't mess up the float when you do this as sometimes they are hard to get back in. I find a lot of small engines I get in has a dirty fuel bowl and jet That's all i do in a lot of machines to get them running again..

clean carb.

sounds like carb. could use a good cleaning

thake out the plug and pull the cord a few times that should clear any oil on the head clean plug and try again if the mower is old the piston rings are either worn or broken allowing oil to get into the fuel .

sounds like you either have a bad fuel filter or your carb needs a good cleaning i would lean to the carb cleaning

most primer are held in by a spring just use a small screwdriver slide it down besidfe the button and pry the spring out slowly
