When it is hard to start the engine:
In some cases, restarting of the engine may become difficult
sometime after stopping the engine because the mixture in the
combustion chamber becomes excessively rich. In such a case, carry
out the following procedures 1–4 to expel the rich mixture.
1. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
2. Move the choke lever to the OPEN position.
3. Keep the throttle control lever to the HIGH speed position.
4. Pull the starter grip 3–5 times.
CAUTION:
Be sure to turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
If this operation is executed with the engine switch at the ON
position, the equipment may start to move when the engine starts,
and a personal injury may result.
Start the engine referring to the procedures described in STARTING
THE ENGINE.
• Start the engine with the choke lever in the OPEN position.
When the engine will not start:
1. Is the engine switch in the ON position?
2. Is there fuel in the fuel tank?
3. Is gasoline reaching the carburetor?
To check, press the priming bulb several times.
4. Is the spark plug in good condition? (see page 34)
Remove and inspect the spark plug. Clean, readjust gap and dry the
spark plug. Replace it if necessary.
5. If the engine still does not start, take the pump to an authorized
Honda dealer.
