If it is the chinese Victa OHV engine.
Undo the lid off the air filter and try and start it then.


If its a Tecumseh i can help out with a used coil if that is the problem.

More than likely it will be an issue with the carburettor. It will have water in it and needs cleaning out.

If in doubt buy a new plug or two, they are less than $5 each. Id preffer NGK ove Champion any day of the week.
