westwood 1800 rideon mower will not run?

I had same problem. Found that the plug was cracked. New one solved it. Don't know why!

Hi, it sounds to me that the inlet valve may be sticking or not seating properly cauing gases to blow back through the carb under compression. Either compression test engine or remove the cylinder head to check for sticking or poor seating. Free off or clean accordingly. Hope this helps
