Harbor Freight Predator motor wont start. My 3hp motor has a lot of issues starting come spring time. My quick fix is always to just change out the spark plug. These motors come with super cheap low quality spark plugs.

These motors have a tendency to be built with cheaper parts so it’s important to know what factors do you have to do and trying to get it to start. I find that every year after the winter time I have issues with the spark plug. I don’t know if it’s just a super cheap quality spark plug or if it’s the brand of spark plug or what it is. What I do it’s usually just jump online and purchase one for the small cost of three to $10.

I have save tons of money through the years using this Harbor freight motor and even if it doesn’t start once in a great while a new spark plug will usually fix the issue if it’s not starting. The predator motors from Harbor freight or sometimes cheaper quality and don’t start and that’s why I’m hoping this video will help you getting it started.

Also one more thing this might seem super simple but I want to remind you that if the spark plug thing does not work and get it started make sure you try to move on to gas and fuel next. Your motor might have old gas inside of it or just low quality gas it might have water in the gas there’s just a lot of variables.
