The
most
common
complaint
about
small
engines
is
that
they
“WONT
START”
The
second
most
common
complaint
is
that
it
runs,
but
runs
poorly.
In
this
program
we
will
discuss
what
is
needed
for
these
engines
to
start,
what
is
needed
from
them
to
run
properly
and
what
tests
and
troubleshooting
steps
can
be
used
when
either
of
these
two
situations
are
encountered.
Let's
examine
how
to
identify
the
problem
you
may
face
with
a
small
engine.
If
you
have
a
no
‐
start
issue
or
a
poor
performance
issue,
there
are
some
Facts
that
we
need
to
understand
when
troubleshooting
these
engines.
We
will
look
at
the
FACTS
F—Fuel
A
–
Air
C
–
Compression
T
–
Timing
S
–
Spark
For
the
engine
to
run
properly
we
need
to
have,
Fuel,
Air,
Compression,
Timing
&
Spark.
These
will
be
discussed
in
more
depth
later
in
this
program.
