trapstor- is your cooling head all the way on, because that happened to me and it wouldn't start for a very long time. My manual says pump fuel to the carb. and then pump twice more. you can always pull the throttle back spray some wd40 in to help ignite the engine, it might work.

e_v- i will try and post the pages from the manual this weekend. You should also see if your controller is on reverse because when you are pulling the throttle it is just hitting the brake causing it to die, it happened to me.
