make sure that there is enough oil in it and make sure the fuel jet is tight because some people unscrew them wen they are not using them, if that does not work try and opening the gap on your spark plug but try and use the kick start to start it well give it a better spark

hi valve on carb will not open wen i throttle wt could it be tnks on my runner

drain the carb off it will have stale fuel in it, then just press the start button dont open the throttle until it is warmed up a bit

Probably has blocked carb pilot jet, strip and clean carb and check all jets, also check that fuel is reaching the carb.
