James,

You are running the machine with the blade plate on are you?

Have you checked your petrol container for water?

Did you flush out the tank?

Did you clean the carby and the main jet in the centre?

The spark you have is it blue?

Did you check the bottom seal for leaks?

If you check these first and it still doesn't go then move to the next thing to check.

Undo the four bolts holding the cylinder to the crank case and remove the cylinder.

Then take the piston ring off and put it in the cylinder to see what ring gap you have also look for scoring in the cylinder. :Wavey:

Let me know what you find.
