Gas is full. Yes switch is on, no low light is on and wouldn't be because
it doesn't have a battery but I checked the oil and is like new and no gas
smell. I'll put the plug on the wire and not screwed in and pull the pull
start to see if I get spark. I'll do it for both the old plug and the new
plug. If I don't get spark something is wrong that I'm overlooking.

Got new plugs off I go.
Stand by.
