It stopped during use from what appeared to be lack of fuel (tank appeared empty ). Added fuel (same as was using) and it failed to start or fire. Checked the plug after many attempts to start, it was sparking ok but the cylinder chamber was dry. Fuel appears to be getting to the carb. but not passing through to the cyl. I tried spraying fuel into the carb with the air filter removed but it did not attempt to fire. Can you suggest what I might try now ??
Thanks caine.
Did try out your suggestions including stripping down and cleaning carb. Now getting fuel to cylinder and spark,but still not fireing.....its gone to the shop.
