When this happens, have you ever checked for spark and fuel to the engine? One will be missing and I need to know which one.

Here is an easy way to check. See if the engine will start with starting fluid. If it starts for a few seconds, then fuel is missing. If it still doesn't start, then spark is an issue.

Let me know what you find.
