What was wierd was that the flywheel will get stock and I had to free it every time. It happened all the the time. This is my second time breaking in an engine. Therefore, I do not have a lot of experience. But I did not have much problem with my first engine. Let me know if you need more information or if would be best for me to send it to you so you can take a look at it.

Thank you
Fernando
did it start at all ?

is your competition heat warmer getting to at least 160° at the head? , if so then loosen the plug (i dont recommend you should have to loosen the plug normally but sometimes)
is your starter box lined up well and strong enough ?
are you priming the fuel system ?

give it another go and if you cant get it , call me , pm me and i will send you my number
