[QUOTE="Termite, post: 577185, member: 15709"] Well I tried new plugs tonight and it won't run. It running yesterday was a fluke. Whipped the carb off again for a look. It had a 140 jet in it, so swapped it for a 125 (as was in the first carb). Still no lukc. I am absolutely all out of ideas and just don't get why it won't run (even lumpy/crap) when it gets off of choke. It's impossible to even try and tweak the carb if it's not running at all. At a total loss with it. Now torn between pulling the engine out to see what the issue with the low compression on cylinder 3 is or just buying a new engine and be done with it. Given up on getting it out on a couple more trips this summer now and thoroughly p*ssed off with it :( [/QUOTE]
