Hi all,

I have a 2015 MS261C originally had no spark but that’s because I was not pulling it over quick enough after a new coil. 
 

Now it will not start, could it be the fuel solenoid? How can I test the solenoid?

 

Does anyone have any ideas, anything common I should be looking for?

 

Thank you in advance 

Phill

Hi @spudulike I gave L&S engineering the serial number and they gave me the part number for the replacement which i ordered. 
 

It is weird, I have spark and it sounds like it wants to fire on first 1-2 pulls, smoke from exhaust but then there is a change in the noise and no smoke.

 

Tried brake cleaner straight into the bore and it still would not fire

 

Thank you for your support.
