Hello Amazon3d

Thanks Barnett, The gap is between the head and the metal carburetor insulator. I wasn't sure how much of a problem that would cause. I will take it out and retap the hole.

You definitely should, the part numbers and some dealers for it are below. The 91304-HB3-003 number might be available at your local Honda dealer, if not you can get it at the dealers below.

CARB INSULATOR O RING ALL NUMBERS BELOW ARE INTERCHANGEABLE.

That is a neat trick with the gas drain tube, will keep it in mind.

It’s been around forever as far as measuring gas goes but I adapted it for uses like yours. It will give at you least 1 instant answer and maybe 2.

I started it with 1/2 choke and air was around 85 degrees.

Ok, my opinion, based on that info, and how it started in the video, more than likely your pilot is not too small and it’s possibly slightly large but not a concern yet.

It has really good spark, shocked the crap out of my hand, bright white/blue.

LOL, great but you still should do the test I suggested.

I also need to get a gasket for the exhaust,

Below are originals, there are several aftermarket ones on Ebay from Vesrah and Emgo. They should be ok.

Edit for my post #61.


"as far as measuring gas goes" should read "as far as measuring gas level goes".

I have no edit button.

Okay, so I have rethreaded the hole and put everything back together.
I am getting bright blue spark, don't think I have a ton of compression but it is roughly 4-5x harder to pull with plug in than with it out.
I have some fuel on tip of plug but am not getting a start. I think it backfired once (broke my pull string).

Okay, So I have a good seal on the Carb and Insulator, everything is tight, I'm getting fuel to the head, spark, and at least some compression (not sure how much I should have) but I cannot get it to start.
Any idea where I am going wrong, could it be valves?
