Here's what I'm working with:
66/80cc Flying Horse Silver Angle Fire Bicycle Engine Kit - 2 Stroke
New CDI installed and wired correctly. Spark plug wire assembly replaced with new automotive type.
New NGK replacement spark plug.
I'm getting good spark.
I've tried getting it started shooting a little starter fluid into the engine via the air intake. No dice. Not even a cough.
Fuel and tank are clean with fuel mixed at about 20:1
This kit came with the basic NT carburetor meaning no adjustments other than the idle screw.
First question. The small spring loaded push button on the carburetor. Is that supposed to be a primer like on other small engines like mowers and weed eaters where pushed it shoots a small stream of fuel? If so I get nothing squirting when it's pushed and I know the carburetor bowl has fuel as I've taken this carb apart already to inspect it and it was full of fuel.
Seeing how I have good consistent spark it's got to be a fuel issue meaning the carb.
