Check for a crack in your distributor cap. Look for condensation inside the cap. WD-40 will displace water if you find it in the cap. That is a starting place.

My Montgomery ward riding lawn mower engine turns over but won't start?

Try starting the engine, pull the spark plug out and see if it is wet with gas, if it is you might not have any spark(possible from a fouled spark plug) or it might have low compression, put the plug into the spark plug boot and set the tip of the plug onto something that is metal on the engine and turn the engine over. you should see spark, no spark=ignition problem. If the plug is not wet the engine isn't getting any gas and you have a carburetor problem.

Wet where? On the outside? Or are you pulling the plugs out for examination when the car won't start? If they're wet on the outside, is the liquid on them fuel?


Why does your car smoke from underneath when wet?

You car has an exhaust system attached to the engine. The exhaust can get to upwards of 300o and then because of that, water that touches that hot metal turns into steam resulting in the "smoke" you are referring to. This also applies to the engine when wet.

95 Honda civic was running fine now will not start it turns over has spark compression the plugs are wet?

Wet with gas? Your engine's flooded. Hold the gas pedal all the way to the floor and crank the engine. It should start up--it'll take a few tries probably, but it should fire up. If this happens a lot, put a switch in the wire powering your fuel pump. You use this by cranking the engine for a few seconds with the fuel pump on and your foot to the floor, then turning it off. When the engine catches, turn the fuel pump back on and pump the hell out of your gas pedal until the engine gives up and runs correctly. You might have to turn the fuel pump on and off a few times, but this will work.


What is a wet start in turbine engines?

Normally when starting a turbine engine, the starter is used to get the turbine up to operational speeds, then fuel is pumped in with the ignition active. A "wet start" is a start where the engine is being started with a quantity of fuel already pooled in the engine (perhaps the result of a previous failed start) or the pilot delays ignition beyond what is normal and allows fuel to pool in the engine before ignition. Wet starts can result in a fire plume or a loud bang, and may damage the engine. The most dramatic damage will be to the compresser turbine blades due to pressure and heat failure.

ecu Remove spark plugs to see if they are wet or dry, wet, insufficient spark. Dry, insufficient fuel.
