I started my chappy up. It ran for a few secs. Then it stopped. I pulled the NEW spark plug and wiped off a small amount of oil. Before I replaced the plug, I checked for a spark and I had one. I'm still not getting any fire. HELP!

The carb has been redone. It has been a one kick wonder all summer, now nothing.I don't know if this has anything to do about, but the headlights don't work anymore? It also a HI-LO automatic LB80. Newer is cool, older classy. lol

Here in Florida we get Mud Dawbers { Wasps} building a nest in the exhaust pipes in weedeaters and scooters. Check your exhaust pipe and see if it is clogged. If it is clean it out. It will run for a couple seconds and the stop. Let it sit and try a gain and it will run again for a couple of seconds if clogged.

the exhaust was clear.It still had know fire. That is a great tip though. Isn't that what Eddy Murphy did in one of his Beverly hill cop movies except he used a banana. lol
