Ok i had this motor on my go kart. i had a header on it and a fire sloted head also. i was driving it hard for awhile and the rod broke in 5 pieces and the piston warped and messed up the crankshaft . So i put new rings in it and a new rod and cranksaft. The motor has good fire and the valves are not sticking i tried pouring a little gas in the carb. the motor turns over good it ran fine before i blew the rod. I cant get the motor to start i have no idea why.the gas in the carb is oily to i dont know if its a valve guide or what. Could i have installed the rings wrong i have no idea,.... Any help would be appreciated
.030
1ml
SAE 30
Run the car good
All the small Briggs engines seem to have a points gap of 0.02 inches
any where from 120 lbs to 180 lbs
A Champion CJ8Y or J19LM will perform fine
The spark plug should be gaped at .030"(76mm)
0.030" for a champion or 0.020" for NGK and others.
It may be one of two things. Either it isn't getting enough gas, or to much
The most common reason for a carburetor not to receive fuel is a plugged fuel line. The fuel filter can also be plugged.
The easiest way is to use a standard business card between the coil and the magnet part of the flywheel.
