First post so please be gentle ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Alright folks, I found this old *** Toro Recycler on the side of the road, was bored as hell so took it home to try and revive it.
I've done just about everything I can imagine and I still can't get the damn thing to start. Here it is:
-Upon pull-starting, there is definitely pressure resistance, so I can conclude that the cylynder is pressurized.
-I have cleaned the cylinder from all carbon build-up.
-Spark is present.
-Old carb was siezed up I couldn't get into it, ordered a new one, so in theory carb shouldn't be a problem.
-Using fresh gasoline
From what I can tell, spark, pressure, mixture - the thing should start, right?
I'm convinced the problem must be with either a)carb or b) timing, however carb is new and timing seems correct.
Carb is new, so any advice on how to test if it is working properly (fuel being actually sucked through the venturi), or any other potential reasons the thing isn't starting?
Anything helps, I'm desperate at this point...
