Below are some tips that can be beneficial, though it is always important to consult the operations manual in some or even consult a professional in the field.
• Fuel tank. For an engine to function without fuel, it is like a person surviving without oxygen (breathing).before trying to diagnose other engine problems, especially those associated with startup, always check the fuel tank to ensure that the engine has the required energy to drive its function. Lack of fuel may prevent the small engine from starting up. Also, dirty, low grade or improper may cause other engine problems. You should replace any fuel that you suspect to be contaminated, dirty, or refill if tank is empty.

The spark plug can be tested using a plug tester and if it is functioning properly, the gap it covers should be appropriately adjusted. Faulty ones are better replaced to ensure elimination of such problems.

Excess carbon may sometimes also cause engine knocking and should that occur, it is advisable to follow the product manual on removal/ cleaning of excess carbon.
