    Bad old fuel. Get fresh gas. Drain old gas out, take spark out pull start any times to get rid of old fuel. Clean plug install/new fuel should run.

    I use mid grade gas or high grade on all our 2 cycle tools. Burns better less down time

    PS starter fluid in a two cycle can damage cylinder and rings. No lube in starter fluid. The oil mixed with gas is the lube for the motor
