My engine cranks but won't fire. What's wrong?
Based on your symptom, the most likely causes are: fuel delivery issue (68%), ignition fault (22%), or low compression (10%). A few quick questions will narrow it down. Did it start fine last time you used it?
Yes, ran perfectly two weeks ago.
That points strongly to a fuel issue — likely a clogged filter or contaminated gas. Estimated repair: $120–$220. I can connect you with 3 techs available in your marina today. Want me to?
