  If your Yamaha Portable Generator engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure that fuel is being supplied to the combustion chamber and that there is fuel in the tank. If there is fuel, check that the fuel cock lever is in the ON position. A clogged fuel line or foreign matter in the fuel cock could also be the culprit, requiring cleaning. Similarly, a clogged carburetor can prevent the engine from starting. Low oil level or poor spark are other potential causes that you can fix by adding engine oil, removing carbon, or wiping the spark plug dry. If these steps don't resolve the issue, a faulty ignition system may be to blame, and it's best to consult a Yamaha dealer.

  If your Yamaha Portable Generator's engine won't start, begin by checking the fuel level. Then, inspect the fuel to ensure it hasn't deteriorated. Also, verify the fuel cock lever position and whether fuel is reaching the fuel cock. Remove the spark plug, attach it to the spark plug cap, and ground the spark plug to check for a spark. Finally, examine the spark plug for any dirt and check the spark plug gap.
