We have all been where you are right now! Whether experienced for years or just starting out. When experiencing ignition issues it is best to start with the basics. Here are some videos I put together about 4 yrs ago to help out a fella. They are step by step, so just bare with the step by step and follow along. These videos should help you find your ignition issue. Then you can tackle the carburetor…..lol

They are broken up in 10 min segments because originally You Tube did not allow me to post the whole video, so I had break them up in 10 min segments to post. I did them in the spur of the moment, to help a fella out and just left them up on You Tube.

Please get an adjustable open air gap spark checker. You will see one displayed in the videos.
