The manual will lead you through a process of inspection to find the problem..

Start with the easy things though, fuses, kill switch, spark plug, spark plug cap and lead. The spark plug cap could be not letting the spark through to the plug, or it could be letting the spark short to the plugs metal body..

At the back of the manual in the trouble shooting section it will tell you what parts to test for no spark, then in the electrical section it tells you how to inspect and test the parts.

Something in your security settings I'd think.. I use linux.

There are other places you can download service manuals for free.

Oh yeah, never trust a sparkplug... They can be crook from new, and a new one can get fouled before the engine even fires up and runs..
