take in for service and clean if unable to do it yourself.

Take the spark plug out and give it a good clean. Also crank the engine a few times with the plug out to disperse any excess fuel. Try again - don't forget to press the primer bulb a few times if it has one. Try to start with full choke and full throttle. Crank until the engine fires. Then choke off, full throttle and it should start.
