Answer
Hi Keith,

To run, an engine needs the following elements: adequate cylinder compression, spark at exact time, and correct air-fuel mixture.

Secondary problems may be causing the engine not to start such as; wiring defects, worn parts, varnished carburetor, etc...

With a one sentence description, there's not much to work with. I'll send you a general file on troubleshooting.

Respectfully,
