Update:
New fuel, new tubing. The motor started right away, I could have it running for a long period, like 20sec. Then I removed the glow starter and it immediately started to run bad and just ran worse and worse until it stopped, this took maybe 1-2 seconds.

My guess is that this has something to do with the compression? I do miss the gasket between the motor and the cooling top (I wasnt allowed to post picture), and I could have possibly damaged to cylinder when I cleaned the motor. I have tried to find a replacement gasket but I can't seem to find it

EDIT: Ok I found the gasket, it was of metall so I didn't notice it
