Gas Engine

new small gas engine question?

we have an older wood splitter that we just put a brand new greyhound 6.5 hp gas engine ...model # 66015...everything went together fine and appears to be in its right place. but it will not start. It turns over, but refuses to start. ANY tricks or tips on new engines would be appreciated.

Thanks
We are getting gas...and spark! We have checked everything thats typical or obvious..that we know of.
Has new gas in it, has oil, getting spark, getting gas, has compression! I give up!

Did you check the fuel shutoff valve? Did you put oil in, I think they have a low oil sensor. Are you using fresh gas, not some old stale stuff you had laying around? Got spark?

Those Greyhound engines are very cheap for a reason, just like a Honda except the quality is left out and the workers who make them are paid slave wages with no benefits. They sure are tempting at that low price. I guess at that price you can just replace it every year or two. Perfect for our throw away economy! Send the scrap back to China and they can sell it back to us again! It's no wonder we have such a large trade deficit.
