Why won't my Wen Construction Equipment engine start?
- AAmanda ReedAug 4, 2025
If your Wen Construction Equipment engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the engine switch is set to the “ON” position. Next, check that the fuel valve is also in the “ON” position. If these are correct, verify that the choke is closed. The engine might be out of fuel, so add gasoline if needed. Contaminated or old gasoline can also prevent starting, so change the gasoline and clean the carburetor. A dirty or broken spark plug can be the culprit, so clean or replace it. Also, make sure the plate compactor is on a level surface to prevent low oil shutdown. Check the oil level and add or replace oil if it's low. Finally, the carburetor might be air locked; shut off the fuel valve and remove the screw from the bottom of the carburetor to reset it.
