Merry Christmas everyone,
I just finished putting everything together, including fabricating an idle pulley wheel out of a roller blade. Everything is finally running perfectly when I pedal and I have no problem getting the bike up to the necessary speed to start the engine. Unfortunately, when I release the clutch, nothing happens. I filled the tank with a 1/16th oil/gas ratio, and followed all the instructions to the best of my knowledge.
At one point, I unscrewed the spark plug to watch it while I pedaled and dumped the clutch - but no sparks occurred. Is this normal?
Any ideas? I'd LOVE to get this thing started on Christmas, after FOUR DAYS of building, hang-ups, jury-rigging, etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
My engine is from bikeberry - it's a 60/80cc chinese model with NT carb and a Schwinn Delmar.
