Bad gas. It sits too long and turns into a "varnish." Drain your gas. Put new gas in and you should be OK.

Yeah probably bad gas...or bad additive. We run 92 octane in everything gas we own(other than my truck)....this keeps over the winter just fine...and will start up right away. The other gas seems to go bad in a very short time(1-2 months).

remove plug boot, remove plug, re-insert plug in socket (boot), secure to side of motor (against METAL surface, firmly with stick or somethin) with all switches on, do not touch the plug as you will get an unpleasent shock, and turn it over. You should see a healthy blue spark that is consistant.

If no spark is detected... Check to make sure kill switch is disabled, check the condition of the plug. Is it wet? Dry? Wet: its getting flooded (too much fuel), is it dry (not getting any fuel)
