AnswerHi Gary,
From the limited description, I cannot diagnose the problem. I can shoot in the dark and guess....
An internal combustion enigine needs a spark at the exact time, proper cylinder compression, and correct air-fuel mixture. Remove or alter any one or more of these elements and the engine will not start and run.
Check and clean the spark plug. Check for a blue arc with the plug removed and grounded to the engine. Is the carburetor working properly? Check for fuel delivery, varnishing, etc... The list goes on.
Respectfully,
