Hello everyone I'm new here and need some help. I have a Simplicity 16GTH, OHV, Twin V Vanguard (Briggs and Stratton). I replaced the battery with new one and the thing just won't start. It has excellent cranking power but just won't "kick-in" to start (i.e. to completely turnover). Just yesterday I installed a new solenoid but that didn't help. Any ideas, suggestions, etc.?
thanks in advance for your help.

I would check the valve clearances. Here is a service manual which may help.
