Zach, it sounds like it just needs a little TLC. It doesn't take much water to prevent a small engine from running. I would start at the beginning, the fuel tank. I use a battery filler bulb to suck gas from small tanks such as that. pull as much gas out as you can, then stuff a rag in it and use a screwdriver or something similar to mop it out. If it has a float type carburetor, and I think it does, remove the float bowl, being careful not to let the float drop too much, and make sure there is no water there. then remove the spark plug and pull it through a few times to clear the cylinder then re-install the spark plug, making sure it is clean, or just install a new plug. Use fresh gas and I would think it would run. Should there still be no fuel supply to cylinder, you may have to dismantle carburetor and blow out all the passages with air. This is basically the way check them out when I buy a "pig in a poke". Good luck and keep us posted. Lowell
