New to the MT had some issues during break in I would go and slow down to make a turn and she would die so I would restart it now breaking is done and she will not start I have change the plug I have checked for fire check for compression make sure she was getting fuel it don’t even act like it wants to start I have put the high and low back on factory settings I have tried to adjust low end to see if I can get it to start
 
Sorry your having those issues. Are you running a stock motor? When I brought my MT new, I didn't even start the factory motor. Took it off and sold right out the box. Replaced it with an OBR 30.5 full mod. Never had a starting issue with it thus far....
 
I don't know much about those stock motors. It seems you've checked all the main run points. It could be something inside the carburetor. DDM have rebuild carb kits for a few bucks. Worth a try....

I have put a new carburetor on it
 
I found the best cure for a stock motor is to replace it with a Zenoah.
You'll need to use your stock front cover to mount it.
 
I was having a lot of these when I first got my truck aswell. First things first, you'll definitely want a spark plug asap. you may or may not need it rn but eventually you will because for some reason that first couple of tanks you run to break in get dirty real quick. Second you may want to check your running the right fuel mix, third youll want to buy yourself a new controller. The stock controller mine came with was fine for a bit but then it stated to cut power mid drive?‍♂️ ive found out that getting a controller with a screen that shows you all your mixes and things of that sort really really helps. I had problems for the longest time and soon as got this ive never had a problem again. Radiolink link controller is what I use, a little pricey but definitely worth it
 
Mine would not start after running. No spark. Looked at everything twice. Come to find out the 2 screws on top of the motor were to tight and not allowing the killswitch button to release. Loosened both phillip screws alittle never had an issue again with starting.
