It could just be a too hot starter and discharged battery.

I would let the starter cool off as in a few hours and put the battery on an actual charger, trickle automatic overnight deal would be best.

I always prime with the hand operated primer pump, I would also crank with a couple of injector lines loose at the head and tighten them once you see fuel, then move on to two others, it should start once you have fuel at a few injectors.

dont run it constantly and let it rest in between tries (I have also used a helper fuel at the intake, like wd40 or starting fluid but these are last last resorts)


It could have lost prime or just run off what was in the fuel filter, try refilling it with fuel and priming. you could also try jumping the starter solenoid, it is easy. or tapping on the starter while trying to start it, also easy. google will help with both.


Good luck, I am sure you will figure it out
