Not sure what your question is, Wenham.<br /><br />Servicing your engine without a manual or plenty of experience is a problem waiting to happen.<br /><br />Do you have a manual?

I just wanted to know if i face any special problems or difficulty in striping the the carb,everything on the motor seems in order and it still wont fire so i thought i would give the carb a clean out as it hasnt been run for some time, i have a badly written book and tells just about nothing like most-- ending with ------Take it to your nearest dealer<br />T***

Ahhh. Now I think I understand.<br /><br />There aren't any particular problems with that carb that I know of, but I would confirm that fuel is the problem by spraying some fuel mix into it when trying to start.<br /><br />Good luck. :)
