what make of engine is in it
plug specs are on a decal somewhere around the plug or in the operators manual
search -- operators manual for powermate generators -- as the engines will all run the same plug for that make of engine
it should say on the side of the plug very carefully hold the coil wire about a 1/4 inch away from the head or other metal object and crank it and see if it is firing be careful and dont get shocked and make sure to stay away from gas tank and gas fumes and if it sparks chances are it is the plug
and check the oil level because it has a low oil shutdown switch and if it is out of oil or low it wont start
Low oil doesn't usually make engines cut out. Clean the air filter, change the plug and wire. If this doesn't help then I think you're looking at a carb. problem. Probably just clogged jets & ports. It's very common on small engine carbs. It shouldn't take more than 2 quarts of oil. Probably not even one.
one suggestion is:check the black piece that fits into the plug...there might be a wire cut,,..
