The plug was wettish. I replaced the fuel with fresh. Still not a

Check that the plug wire is snug on the plug (wire terminal). Ensure
there are no cracks in the wire that can ground out on the engine.

For giggles, does this trimmer have an on OFF/ON switch? Nothing
sillier than starting an engine when the switch is "OFF"...

I think that says no spark. When I check I'll report back but I
think this may clinch it.


....please let us know, for sure.
