Honda HS621 won't start Original Message Feb 5, 2015 3:10 pm
Last week I started it with the choke closed (up) and started clearing snow. Within a minute it sputtered and died. I have not been able to start it since then. Even during winter I add stabil to gas. The gas in the tank is full, but it might be a few months old. I will get a new spark plug and see if it helps. What do you think is going on with it? Any suggestions?

My hands are not large but I can't possibly reach into there holding the spark plug, I used Honda's spark plug socket without the wrench/metal piece first.
if old one went in, then the new plug could be off. return it and buy another one or another brand. doubt u stripped it if the old one could go back in. good luck
u need to drain all ur fuel out.. and get fresh fuel.. do NOT use old... if fuel sits for more than month it can go stale... if old plug was wet/oily when u pulled it out u need to replace it.. it will not start with that fouled off plug.. Honda I find are more prone to not starting with older fuel, I think its because they use a little less compression on start up then other brands hence there easy to pull over..
