is the plug getting wet ? if it is then its more likley to be electrical if its not then is a fuel problem.
This is the basic check when it wont start. then its a process of elimination.
If you have a spark is it a strong one ?
First off change the plug, because faulty ones can still spark!
Check stator has not come loose and moved again it will still spark (just not in the right place)
The other thing it could be if every thing else is ok is execessively worn rings. to check this instead of stripping down pour a little oil down the plug hole is should then start
for a minute any way !
