Hi,
Engine died when I was out running it, and now won't start.
I think it's not getting fuel... Pulled spark plug out check spark it's good and strong, cranked engine seems very dry (no fuel).
Pulled carnie off an cleaned it made sure everything worked all look good.

Haven't touched any L an H mixer screws yet?
Will make a diff?

Cheers
 
check to see if the spark plug is wet with fuel, if its dry maybe you need to clean your carby

Carby is clean I've already cleaned it.
Doesn't any else know what might be restricting the fuel?.
Spark plug isn't getting wet

The possible reasons's for fuel not entering the cylinder is a blocked or cracked fuel line's a blocked airvent or a dirty carby also high and low needles incorrect position

Take the plug out put a few drops of gas down the plug hole put the plug in and try to start it. See if in hits, pops or try to start.
 
I've fixed I fully striped the carb an cleaned out all the ports n holes plus I put a couple drops of fuel in the spark entry n only put it in finger tight. It fired after a few pulls so either dirty carb or the fuel at spark plug fixed it, just need to tune it now.
Anyone know the setting to get the best out of these weapons
30.5cc

Cheers all

1 1/2 on the high and 1 1/4 on the low. Get engine up to temperature and tune from there. On my 30.5 I had to lean it out a little from factory settings to keep in running and get it where it would pull off.
