What am I missing?
New fuel. Cleaned out the fuel filter. Plug is wet & getting fire. Flywheel key is good. It's got plenty of compression (over 125lbs). I see no signs of a scored cylinder. Put in two new RCJ6Y's, and still nothing. So I put the original back in, and still nothing.
Yesterday, it ran fine. It idled pretty smooth. And WOT produced good RPM's and plenty of power.
Today, I got one little "almost start" and that was it. I've poured a little mix into the plug hole, after blowing it out, and got nothing.
Update: Removed plug sprayed a tiny squirt of carb cleaner in it, and still nothing. Rechecked the spark. and it's still good.
