    OK. I changed the oil on the bottom unit and put just a little gas into the tank. (This is a motor that came to me empty.) Can’t get it to start or even sputter. What’s my next step?

    Put more some fuel in the tank. If the filter in the tank is dirty, it will need fuel at a higher level to flow thru it. Loosening the copper line at the carb will confirm any flow.
