Did you check your spark plugs?

check to see if your spark plugs are torqued down properly ... then check your oil levels.

your engine needs spark to ignite fuel. if your spark plugs are loose, then it may not be getting enough power from the coils to create a (strong) spark. or it may be too loose or too tight, which throws off where the spark is supposed to be to ignite the fuel.

spark plugs are very important, but it seems like a very neglected part of the engine. incorrect gap, incorrect torque settings, the wrong type of spark plug, the wrong heat range, etc can all affect how a spark plug will function.

make sure you have the correct type of plug, correctly torqued, etc.

check your plugs, check your oil.
