[QUOTE="StuF, post: 592663, member: 17262"] If you can - check the leads and pop the spark plugs out checking each plug to see if they all look the same. When it finally gets running are all 4 cylinders firing? If all is good with the plugs and leads check for a nice strong spark when cranking - if all is good with leads and plugs/spark it will be fuel related With the fuel - check to see if your filter is clear and not all blocked up. Follow the bottom pipe from the fuel pump connected to the carb, disconnect and put into a bottle to catch the fuel - get someone to crank the engine and check for a good squirt of fuel as the engine turns. If all is good there then its time to start messing with the carb. Post back on what you find :D [/QUOTE]
