Small Engine Repair Honda Won't Start?

Another thing to check that I did not mention in the video is some engines like this one has a low oil sensor and if the oil level is not high enough the engine will die and not start.

It doesn't matter if you have a Harbor Freight predator engine, a nice Honda, Tecumseh, or Briggs motor they are all set up the same with similar components. This videos shows some of the main causes for your engine not starting. Since its getting cold you'll want your snow blower or generator to start right up. Since this is a small engine it will work for your go kart, tiller, pump, generator, snow blower, mower, edger or whatever you have in your garage.

Here are some simple tips to check and if those don't work it might be the carburetor.
1. Check gas
2. Check on/off switch
3. Check spark
4. Check oil level
5. Check carb.

I've been working on small engines for about 20 years and almost every time an engine has been sitting over winter the carburetor is gummed up and needs to be cleaned.

Hope this video helps someone out. Good Luck!
