Hiya folks
Running my MT today and bought it in to give it a rest,pushed the cut-pff button and as normal the engine stopped,took the filter off and cleaned it then after 5 minutes pulled it to start.....Nothing!.....Pulled it again and again and again.......absolutly nothing,not even a pop or splutter.So went through the normal,plug,cut-off button,fuel etc.Pulled the plug out and the spark was healthy,put another plug in and still nowt.So went home and put another carb on incase I sucked some poop into the mill,pulled it .........NOTHING!!!!.Drained the tank,new fuel,same! Took the mill out set it up in my vice so that it would run as normal and took the cowlings off,unplugged the cut-off,pulled again......guess?.....NIL!
So i was contemplating cleaning it up and using it as a door stop for my workshop
Please fellow RCer's can you advise me on what I am doing wrong please as I'm no novice but this has got me beat.
Engine...CY 26cc
Carb....standard Walbro
spark plug...NGK
Fuel ratio....25-1 mix
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers in advance.
James.

So after tossing(Ooo-err!) and turning I thought 'sod it' and got up at 3.00AM,went into my work shop,gas on and so the kettle aswell and started tearing down the motor.Everything was off so I ws down to the crank case and head.The carb was in bits all the nuts ,washers and bolts in magnetic dishes and then I thought about taking the head off to see if there was any major damage to the piston and ring.When i turned the mill upside down roughly a 1/4 of a cup of oil/fuel (black stuff anyway)came out of the bottom of the engine where the crank sits
so i thought 'ok',i'll put it back together and see if that makes any difference as I didn't have a head gasket to replace the one I was about to take off and would have to wait for a replacement.So bolted it back together and set it up in the vice ready for the morning.At 8.00AMish I primed the carb,se H and L needles to factory settings and pulled.....KKKKRRRAAAAKKKKK....DING,DING,DING.....Fired first pull!!!:clap::clap::clap:.
