Hi Troy, the link below is a short YouTube video showing the right colour spark and it should spark over the top of the centre electrode... How to check for Spark Plug Fire in any engine If it doesn't spark then check the solinoid.... How to test lawn mower solenoid shows all safety switches disabled.... Disable all lawnmower safety switches But if it sparks then it's a fuel problem. You need to pull your carby off and unscrew the bottom half from the top, 1st sign of a needle stuck inside the seat is a dry carby There you'll find the float, push the float up and down and see if the needle above the float slides up and down from the seat, If the needle stays up then it's stuck and NOT letting the fuel into the carby, Just pull it down with your fingers to loosen it up..I hope this helps.... CHEERS..
