1. Fuel tank empty.
   
   
2. Battery discharged (engine rotates slowly). Check operation of electrical components as described in previous section (see Chapter 1).
   
   
3. Battery terminal connections loose or corroded. See previous section.
   
   
4. Carburetor flooded and/or fuel level in carburetor incorrect. This will usually be accompanied by a strong fuel odor from under the hood. Wait a few minutes, depress the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor, hold the pedal down and attempt to start the engine.
   
   
5. Choke control inoperative (Chapter 4).
   
   
6. Fuel not reaching carburetor. With ignition switch in off position, open hood, remove top plate of air cleaner assembly and observe the top of the carburetor (manually move choke plate back if necessary ). Have an assistant depress the accelerator pedal fully and check that fuel spurts into the carburetor. If not, check fuel filter (Chapters 1 and 4), fuel lines and fuel pump ( Chapter 4).
