A possible cause of no spark in the spark plug after replacement could be that the spark plug is fouled due to the choke being left on too long during starting attempts. This can happen if the engine dies and the choke remains in the left (closed) position. The fouled plug may need to be cleaned.

what is proper oil level

The proper oil level for the PowerMax XP10000E is to fill the oil up to the top of the oil filler neck. Check the level by inserting the dipstick into the filler neck without screwing it in.
