I have ran into yet another issue with this motor. While attempting to start the motor all i'm getting is the occasional firing out of the exhaust and backfire out of the intake. The motor is creating excellent spark and has good compression. While checking the plugs it looked like the oil could be slimed down a bit, so i cut back. I got little improvement.
The motor will not even fire when choked or full throttle. Only on minimal throttle will this random fire/backfiring occur. This would lead me to believe there is too much gas. But the mixture screw is set ok, the float plunger isn't stuck down, and the float/needle-and-seat seem to be in good working order. I'm getting a normal fuel supply to the carb.
I'm out of ideas
