Hello,

I bought one of these on a whim when it was in a sale a couple of
years ago. I've never used it properly but on the advice of people
here, I would run it with a load every now and again to make sure it
was working. What with moving house etc. it has not been used in a
long time. I found it whilst tidying the garage the other day and
cannot start it.

Is there anything I can try to resurrect it? The oil/petrol mix has
been in there a while, should I pour that out and start again?

There used to be a product called, I think, "Damp Start" wich you sprayed
into the air intake for situations like this. It seemed - from the smell -
to be a highly combustable product - so it probbly got banned under some
regulation.
