I have a 1990 Blaster. I just bought a used engine for it. The problem is it will not kick start. It will roll start and runs like a raped ape when it does fire up. Stock carb, I think it is a 250 stroker. New fuel, new plug, good spark, tors removed oil injection removed. checked the reeds and they are good. swaped carbs still just roll start. please help I'm going out of my mind. also it will kick start after I warm it up for a while but if it sits for 5 min it will nit kick start again. Thanks.
I'm pulling my hair out.

You have low compression. you probably just need new rings. The reason it starts after its warm is because everything swells and the tolerance gets tighter and your compression goes back up a little bit.
warriors have this same problem.
it could be the stator going bad check for spark.
and check your compression if it still starts after the pull and it has low compression it shouldnt run like a "raped ape"

+1 more on the low compression. could be as simple as a junk seal on the sparkplug or the headgasket not quite making seal. best bet is to rering it with fresh gaskets.
Sorry I have been away from the computer for a couple days. My compression gage is busted. Snap-on is bringing me a new one on monday. I did find that around the front part of the head is damp. I bet I am loosing enough compression out of the head gst. for it not to start, than after it warms up it expands. I will order a new top end gst. kit. Do yall think I should rering it at the same time? Thanks.
