Any advise appreciated Phil Have you put fresh fuel in? If not i'd drain the old petrol out and get some new stuff in. A bit of easy start into the inlet will probably help too. GL.

Hi thanks for your reply ,yes put fresh fuel in and it starts when I put a drop of fuel down plug hole or into carb so dont think it is a ignition prob,only other thing I did was top up oil ,poss too much so drained a bit off just in case this was the prob ?
