    Why Ryobi RY52014 engine will not start?
    • M

      The engine may not start due to several reasons: * **No spark:** Check for spark by removing the spark plug, reattaching the cap, and laying it on the metal cylinder. Pull the starter rope and watch for a spark at the plug tip. If there's no spark, try again with a new spark plug. * **No fuel:** Push the primer bulb until it's full of fuel. If it doesn't fill, the primary fuel delivery system might be blocked. * **Engine is flooded:** Pull the starter three times with the choke lever at 'RUN'. If it doesn't start, move the choke lever to 'START' and repeat the normal starting procedure. If it still fails, repeat with a new spark plug.
