Try to unflood it. Your fuel filter could be clogged too causing it to not have enough fuel to stay on. Put some fresh gas in there also

pull the egi fuze push the gas pedal all the way down and turn the engine over for 10 sec and then repeat. afterwards put the fuze back this should take care of the flooding problem.

you dont have to repeat after you put the fuse back in, oh, unless you dont have two people. but it usually catches right when you put the fuse back in.

when you say it wont stay on? do you mean it dies after you start it? if so, just give it A LITTLE gas to keep the RPMs above 1000. mine died on me every time i started it when it was cold.
sometimes i would just let it die becuase i didnt know which way was right.
