i have a tecumseh 5hp motor on my log splitter and the splitter worked fine all fall and just all of the sudden its not getting any fuel to the spark plug. The plugs brand new and i just took the carb off and cleaned it and replaced the primer. still nothing, any ideas?

It worked fine all fall, but wouldn't start today? These days, if fuel sits for a couple of months, it is trash and will barely burn. So you need to be more descriptive and put up engine model numbers....

All it says on it is Tecumseh D07323 AC. I just put new gas in it. Replaced the spark plug and the primer ball. I was told the primer was the reason why im not getting any gas to the plug. after i replaced it still nothing

Your numbers come up with squat, look for other tags/etc....
