Starting a Small Engine After Sitting
To start a small engine after sitting, first inspect and replace the spark plug if needed. Check the fuel lines to ensure they aren’t clogged, and fill the gas tank with fresh fuel. Prime the carburetor and set the choke. If it still doesn’t start, remove and dry the spark plug. Examine it for carbon buildup or oil deposits. Ensure good compression, air flow, fuel, and spark for successful engine startup.
