Why is my Stihl Water Pump engine difficult to start?

If your Stihl Water Pump engine is hard to start or its power is decreasing, several issues could be responsible. Begin by checking the fuel for water or contamination; if present, empty the fuel tank, and clean the fuel line and carburettor. Also, ensure you're using the correct fuel. A dirty spark plug (clean or replace it) or a dirty air filter (clean or replace it) might also be the cause.
