I have rebuilt and cleaned the carberator twice. I checked the spark plug. I have spark. But when i try to start it.......nothing. Before I trash this i would love a reply.

The pros are going to need model numbers from the engine to help.

Craftsman doesn't make any engines, most likely a B&S.

Try replacing the spark plug.
Once they start to track down the side of the insulator they will not ignite the engine.
I am assuming you gave cranked the engine with the plug out and grounded so you are sure you are getting a spark.
