I bought a Snapper self propelled mower with a 7 hp B&S Intek at an auction. I did not hear it run. It was sitting in the rain and then rode home in the rain on a trailer. When I got it home I checked the gas and oil and began pulling the rope, it began to squirt water out of the muffler. After a while it began to try to run and eventually it got to where it would run for several seconds and then die. I did this three times or so and then quit. Today I went out to try again and found that while I could turn the engine over by turning the blade I was not able to turn it with the rope. I spun it several times by the blade and then it loosened up. Now it pulls freely but does not run, the plug gets wet with gas. It has 85 psi compression according to my tester. Is that too low to start or should I be looking at the spark? Any advice will be much appreciated. Zach
