I did locate a screw under the carberator. It seems to be spring loaded. When i push up on it, nothing happens.
there's a big storm coming tomorrow.

Sorry that didn't work...when was the last time it ran?
If it has been in storage since last year, did you use Stabil in the tank? If not, flush the fuel and add new. Check fuel filter as well.
I'd use starter fluid first, however...if it starts and stalls, could be fuel.
Also, I find that old fuel and electric lines crack and prevent starting. Bend and check.
Good luck with the storm
