[team-red-rider]

i just installed a brand new carb on the thing changed the oil, spark plug, fresh fuel and adjusted the valves all that junk...wont start...it dosent even TRY to start..what could be wrong

[edog]

Do you have a manual???????????

[super90]

anything could be wrong. No spark, no fuel?

[team-red-rider]

got spark got fuel got manual =]

so that means should fire lol ha ha maybe you the gap slipped when you adjusted the valves. it is really hard to say man. did you put a oversize carb on or is it a oem carb ? hows the compression ? there could be anything wrong.

You need 3 things for it to work: Spark, air/fuel mixture, and compression. Take out any of the 3 and it won't work. If you're sure you've got a nice fat spark, and you personally went and poured some gas down the spark-plug hole and then pulled it over, and it didn't start, means you've got bad compression. Maybe valves leaking, maybe rings worn, maybe bad cylinder.

is the timing off, is it getting enough fuel, is the compression good, is the intake or exhaust blocked, is the engine built right? check everything.

[team-red-rider]

its got 150PSI compression no oil 155 with oil.....got FFAATT blue spark got fuel etc...with fuel down plug hole nuthin pop-pop, pop-pop

[84honda200s]

ok clean the plug off. then put gas down the head if nothing pull the plug. if it smells like fuel and is wet its wither compression or spark/timing but if your saying it has good compression it leaves one thing and thats spark/timing.

[RedRider_AK]

Wow, your life must really suck.

Check to make sure your timing is on the mark, check your intake and exhaust valves...

Seriously, other than that, I can't think of any other reason why your machine isn't starting. You have to be really really good to screw an engine up that much.

hell try some either or carn cleaner in the head other than gas. ive used carb cleaner and it works great. as rider said those are the only possible things wrong.

[team-red-rider]

it starts and runs fine on either ..idle's all day runs great...i should have mentioned that...but either KILLS!! a motor...trust me ive seen what it can do first hand

[84honda200s]

its not that bad in small shot. ive used it in every engine ive had. it never hurt. but like i said small shots. all it takes to start it is 1 small shot. so it runs ?? its probably just a cold harted *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**E dited* like mine. does it have any engine work done to it ?

[RedRider_AK]

It runs on ether, but not regular gas?

[team-red-rider]

to start yes...it wont restart once u shut it off untill its cool tho....its confusing..
