    timing?

    Fuel makes it into the bowl on the carb. I am trying a few things this weekend. Its almost Spring I need to get it running soon!!!! Yes I have checked the reeds and tried to different sets. I have 2 engines that I have been swapping parts around with. Any suggestions by anyone would be huge...

    timing?

    Its acting like its not getting fuel. It will back fire occasionally but that is all it will do. I have another carb I am going to try and put on plus I picked up a flywheel puller to check the timing key. Not sure what else to look at as compression is good.

    timing?

    Shifting? I did not know it would effect that as I can shift normal. So maybe that is not my problem.

    Okay will try to re-torque everything and make sure I have no air leaks. I think I am going to rebuild the carb as well. Might as well do it anyway even if that is not the issue.

    Grounds? It is getting spark so that shouldn't be an issue. Yeah I do need to check that everything is tight so I will check that as well.

    Yeah tried and cleaned out everything a couple of times. The last time I removed all the jets and they look clean.

    Yeah the reeds look good as far as I can tell. I would think that it would at least run if it was running lean. I think I am going to try rebuilding the carb unless I can get another suggestion.

    It was in the process of breaking in that it did that. I know fuel is getting into the bowl as the carb has gas when I take it off. I did try and clean out every thing possible. Including the petcock! lol Plus the only mod was an aftermarket exhaust which was on it when I bought it.

    Hello Everyone! I am new here as I a few weeks ago I purchased my first Blaster. I wanted a winter project so I purchase a 01 Blaster. The engine that was in it needed the top end rebuilt. I rebuilt the top end on it with a stock jug I found with a new stock piston. It started and ran fine...
