I use pull rope to start. Air cleaner is good. Spark plug new. Will check for
spark the next time. Thanks.


To check it for spark, take the plug out, reconnect it to the wire
and use a jumper wire to ground the metal of the plug to the engine.
It can be hard to see the spark, doing it in a darkened garage makes
it easy to see.
