Re: Tecumseh won't start

Kinda sounds like it...try putting your finger over the plug hole and turning the flywheel. If it builds up compression and blows your finger off the hole, everything's fine with the rod and piston.
Turning the flywheel will turn the blade because it's hooked to the end of the crankshaft.
