How much runtime is on the motor? Have you tried putting fuel right in the plug hole and pull it motor. You could have blown a head gasket, lots of those Chinese motors are two bolt heads. carb could also be plugged, but I would try putting a little bit of fuel in the cylinder, if nothing happens, then it might be time for tare down. If there is damage to the motor you can get a zenoah short block and bolt the parts right to the new motor.

Pull the plug out, smell it. Is it dry or soaked with fuel?

if soaked, pinch or pull off fuel line and turn the engine over until the combustion chamber is dry.

if dry, check for a clogged/pinched hose.

Soooo...was the plug wet or dry? It's a simple engine not a Mercedes.

You haven't given us enough information.

If you have spark ,fuel an compression ,then it should atleast fire up one time an die!
The flywheel key can be sheered throwing the ignition timing off ,pull the
flywheel an check the woodruff key!

You need to just pull the engine and look it over, or you could be pulling on it all day.

Its the keyway or pin that slides in slots on the crank shaft an inside the flywheel
that keeps the ignition in time!

If the engine ever backfires or engine comes to a fast stop ,the key can easly shear ,
an throw the ignition timing off.

I'm a small engine mechanic an run across this every now then.
They use to be a separate key back in the old engines back in the day ,but
now the manufactures are incorporating them in the actual flywheel an they
are made with the same material of the flywheel which causes them to sheer
easy.
They make them cheaper these days!...
