What are we working on here? year.... model.... engine....

won't turn over or won't start? big difference!

What happened before you had problems? stop working all at once or progressively got worse?

Will it start with carb spray or ether? A "very small amount of gas" probably wouldn't start it, depending on how much a "very small amount of gas" is to you.

Carb spray will not burn. Best not to recommend it.

Where is your voltage gauge reading?

Is just above 14?

I just noticed this thread. Carb cleaner does burn. Aside from it stating all over the can that it is flammable, it is what I use to often get push mowers started that haven't been run for a while, especially ones that don't have a prime bulb. I use it due to usually have some around for other projects. It works quickly. Others have often stated using it to troubleshoot a no-start condition with their Blazer.

It does burn, but isn't even close to gasloine or starting fluid.

I can practically kill my engine spraying carb or TB cleaner through the butterfly.
