Second thing, did not see you mention it but have you put a brand new plug in?
Firstly, if I go for a swap, I am leaning towards a Picco .28. I just wanna go fast. lol

Secondly, yes, it was one of my first moves. I did the plug, I took everything apart, the outer crank bearing has a little play, but I figured it would run if it wanted to even with a bearing that wasn't perfect. I can't even get it to sound like it wants to fire. I did a one way bearing already. I am definitely getting glow and fuel, and the motor is spinning, so where am I going wrong?
