Check the compression. Chack the valve adjustment. Engines don't just go
suddenly, while they are sitting. It might be something caught in a
valve seat, or a broken valve spring. What did the plug you pulled out
look like. Any damage on the plug.
If this a a dual carb engine, make sure your accelerator pump nozzle is
still in that carb.
