My first boat had a little one cylinder Vire engine. It didn't work either. I cleaned the carb, redid the sparkplug wire, changed fuel and cleaned it up and then it worked great. Never, ever failed to start! what I liked about it is I could either start it with the starter or with a rope like a lawnmower!

: gasoline engine (Finland) which has not been
: fired up for a year. Has anybody had any
