TROUBLESHOOTING
Engine
If the engine will not start:
1. Is the ignition switch ON?
2. Is there enough fuel?
3. Is the fuel valve ON?
4. Is gasoline reaching the
carburetor?
To check, remove the float
bowl drain screw and turn
the fuel valve ON.
Fuel should flow out freely.
5. Check that the oil level is correct (see p. 10)
6. Is there a spark at the spark plug?
a. Remove the spark plug cap. Clean any dirt from around
the spark plug base, then remove the spark plug.
b. Install the spark plug in the plug cap.
c. Turn the ignition switch
ON.
d. Ground the side
electrode to any engine
ground, pull the recoil
starter to see if sparks
jump across the gap.
e. If there are no sparks,
replace the plug.
If OK, install the new
plug and try to start the
engine.
