Checked both plugs for spark, good!! Check fuel block/filter OK!! stupid question maybe.......what pumps the fuel? Has to be not getting fuel. New gas line from tank to engine. When I remove the fuel line is sprays ....showing pressure.......second time this has happened. Last time I changed plugs and it worked............but I was still getting spark on both plugs........any ideas? Thanks

Look down the list and click on fuelpump,It has a hose from the fueltank connection (IN) and a smaller hose to the carb(OUT) disconnect the small hose that goes to the carb,Put a short hose on that fuelpump nipple and hold its other end over a container (to catch fuel) Turn the motor over and see if the fuelpump is delivering fuel,it should pulse out If its not you have a bad pump.

Thanks so much.............I bet you're right.........or maybe something in the lines. I think I will get a new pump and add a inline filter as well. Thanks again

I never saw any trash.......took carb off and cleaned all vent holes and bowl/needle seat.........works great now. Adding inline filter before I take it out.......thanks for all the help.....
