Started when you bought it...how long ago was that? It always needs spark, fuel and air to start and run. Nature takes care of the air...general starting instructions: set the throttle to Start or Fast, prime the fuel line bulb until it is firm and you detect gas at the carb, pull choke out/on, pull rope firmly until engine fires. After it starts and stabilizes, put the choke in/off and let it warm up. Repeat as necessary, should start with no choke after it has been run awhile.
