fastbanshee8 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Check for a stuck float, a bad needle, and seat above the float, or wrong float height. If you keep running it, without fixing the problem, you'll probably end up hydro locking the motor, and bending the crank, or rod, or both.

You are getting fuel, so which of the other 2 are you missing? Switch plug wires to see if it is spark. Check pickup gap on both tabs. Should be .012". Air is easy to check eliminate, run without filters. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
