Does it turn over at all? Like give a little put-put-put then die out? Or does it not even do that? If it isnt, I'd say check your spark or something, cause that would be my first bet.

Is it a 2-stroke?

ya its a 2 stroke and it doesn't go put-put-put but kinda does it did like 10 times....Gas also drops from a small thin plastic toob at the bottum of the bike until I turn a little white nob

premix or does it have an auto mixer? check fuel/oil mixture, check spark, check battery. try to turn engine by hand, if not seized check above list

chances are with these cheap bikes you may have gotten screwed.

I had the same pocketbike and they are hard to start. My fuel line was kinked but I found if I I took the plug out, poored in some mix, and gave it a few pulls with the choke wide open she ran fine! :)

I had to shorten mine where it came out of the gas tank to the petcock. After that it was money! :lol:
