An engine needs 5 things to run;
Fuel, air, spark,compression, and timing

Check your Fuel system
Check air filter, PCV valve, exhaust.
Make sure spark plug and wire aren't bad so the fuel can ignite
Compression test the cylinder
Make sure the timing didn't go out of whack and the piston didn't have a hot date with the valves


You can disassemble and put a small motor back together in like an hour tops.

Check the oil for metal shavings as well

It's probably some simple issue

LOL, no.

It was a simple issue...
I put the battery on the charger, found a piece of 1 inch strapping around the blade spindle when I took the bldes off to sharpen while waiting for the charger. Motor is fine, and thank you for the pointers tho. ;)
