How do I troubleshoot an engine that won't start?

Ensure the fuel valve is open and the fuel tank has fresh gasoline. Check the spark plug for fouling and clean or replace it if necessary. Make sure the air filter is clean. Verify the choke is set correctly and the engine switch is in the 'On' position.
