2. strawd Says: For a engine to run you need gas, spark, air & compression. You need to check that its getting these. You could start with the air filter and see that its not to dirty. If you hold it to the sun you should be able to see light through it. You can then check for gas. The gas filter might be plugged or the pump might not be working. As for the rest it can be complicated, you will need a good troubleshooting guide.
