There is no spark. I removed the fuel tank and the front panel to see if all the wires were connected. All seemed okay. I then removed the spark plug and it looks okay however i do not know what the gap is supposed to be. I then held it close to the body and yanked the pull cord and there was no spark. It seems to be an electrical problem, but I'm not sure.

First drain the fuel bowl. Any old fuel in there will keep it from starting. Fuel stabilizer is not what it's it cracked up to be. I've worked for 6yrs at a rental yard and had no luck with any fuel stabilizer, the fuel still went bad. If after you drain the fuel bowl it still will not start, you will need to clean the carb. Remove the carb and spray carb cleaner through all the accessible passages. If this does not do it, you will need to replace the carb. For long term storage I highly recommend draining all the fuel and filling just the carb with fuel stabilizer to keep gaskets moist. Then drain the carb when you take it out of storage.

Hi there .
In my opinion you should remove the starter and check the starter first . After you remove the starter get a good 12v battery and 2 wires and test the starter . Make sure to not invert polarity . After you touch the wires on the contactor (small solenoid on the side) see if the overrunnig (part with gears) comes out easy and with no obstruction . If the overrunning does not come out you could have a bad contactor (part # 31204-ZA0-003) or a bad starter (part # 31200-ZA0-701) .
Hope this help

Hello, yes this sounds like a small blockage in the carburetor,
My first stem would be undo the carb bowl and clean this out, also make sure the float works ok and shuts the fuel off when in the up posission..
strip and clean the carb but pay attention to the screw what holds the carb on, not sure if this type has small holes in what lets fuel into the engine? also where the screw holds the bowl on, inside there holds another jet, this gets blocked, make sure its clean and you can see through it..
Make sure you usse the correcy size screwdrivers as these brass screws split very easy and can be a pain in the *** to find replacements..
if you need any more assistance send me a msg.. [email protected]
