Define no start or won't start. Cranks but won't fire up or doesn't crank (starter turns engine over)?

ok, as it cranks, have you checked for spark? i know this may sound silly, but sometimes a new NGK $3 spark plug fixes this before we even have a chance to check out other possible contributing suspects in the ignition system. next, is the spark plug wet with gasoline? is the gasoline making it into the carb and into the jug/cylinder? have you tried cranking it, giving it a small shot of starting fluid in the air filter box and seeing if it tries to start?

so, let's test the red slider kill switch. also look behind the keyed ignition and make sure the leads are connected.

so do you have power to the coil and then any measurable power out the coil wire? are there cracks in the coil wire or burnt/heated up spots which could be damaged?

also check the CDI quick connect as the blades can push back and not make good contact thus killing power to coil.
