so if you have a good blue spark, good gas with out water flowing to the carb, new plug, clean carb thats adjusted properly it should atleast to try to run. im not tryin to be rude or nothing

hi

you might want to check it for conSIStent spark.

There seems to be an epidemic of intermittent spark lately.

sparks nice on the first couple revs with the pull start and then nothing

is there any chance water got sucked into the engine?
airbox intact?

does it seem to have good compression?
