"bw" fired this volley in
:

The key replaced, it still doesn't start! Arrrgh! It has spark &
won't start even with gas squirted in the cylinder.

Oh... BTW... don't squirt gas in the cylinder. First, it may wet the plug.
Second, it washes any oil off the cylinder walls, and can promote wear and
scoring.

Squirt a _little_ down the carb throat (maybe just 1/2cc). If if doesn't
"pop" then, you have a different problem.
