You could try spraying Carburetor Starter ( available almost anywhere ) into
the spark plug hole, after cleaning off spark plug and setting correct gap.
Make sure your line from gas tank to carb is clear.
Good luck; I've had success w/the spray.

Well, i put some Seafoam in the gas tank and couldn't get the engine to
turn over. I inspected the plug and (mind you i am no mechanic) it looked a
bit oily for such a new engine... i have probably less than 10 hours on it
in a years time... the plug was not crusty or anything, just dark... i
emory clothed it clean at the tip and reinstalled it. It seems to me that
if i could get it to turn over just a bit it would limp along until the
Seafoam started working. What would happen if i put some gas in the spark
plug "hole" (told ya i was no mechanic)?
Any suggestions?
