I changed the spark plug, and it's running!
It was strange, I took the spark plug out, reconnected it, held it against the engine, and pressed the start button...engine cranked and sucked, but no spark. I did the same procedure with the new plug, and I still didn't get a spark. Thinking that I had a bad ignition coil, I put everything back toghether (with the new spark plug). When I tried it again...it started! I don't understand why it didn't spark when I had it out. Is there a "secret technique" for checking to see if a spark plug is sparking?
