hi my name is 93sleeper douche all I care about is uping my post count so I can sell my useless stuff here[&:]
81bird^^^^^^^^ignore the douche above=he's totally useless here.............anyway before removing any parts you should of checked for fuel or spark issues..spray some ether down the carb and crank..if it fires = fuel prob..if not grab an inline spark checker and test for spark.....what ignition system did you use??? duraspark???
