Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
Engine will not start
1. No spark
2. No fuel
3. Flooded engine
4. Starter cord pulls harder now then
when new
1. Remove the spark plug. Reattach
the spark plug cap and lay the
spark plug on the metal cylinder.
Pull the starter cord and watch
for a spark at the spark plug tip.
If there is no spark, repeat the test
with a new spark plug.
2. Push primer bulb until the bulb is
full of fuel. If the bulb does not fill,
the primary fuel delivery system
is blocked. If the primer bulb fills,
the engine may be flooded. (See
next item.)
3. Remove the spark plug. Turn the
product so that the spark plug hole
is aimed at the ground. Make sure
the choke lever is set to
RUN
and
pull the starter cord 10 to 14 times.
This clears excess fuel from the
engine. Clean and reinstall the
spark plug. With the trigger fully
depressed, pull the starter cord 3
times. If the engine does not start,
set the choke lever to
FULL
and
follow normal starting instructions.
If the engine still fails to start,
repeat the procedure with a new
spark plug.
4. Contact an authorized service
dealer.
