ok i changed the plugs, and it wanted to start real bad. i got frustrated and came in the house to cool down. went back out there and it fired right up. i got all excited. so i went to switch back to my battery *mine was dead so i was using my friends* and it cut, so i tried to start it again and it wont go again. so im sitting here hoping when i go back out there in a few minutes itll be fine again.

have you tried the main relay? intermittent start ups could lead towards the main relay
