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
0.030" for a champion or 0.020" for NGK and others.
The spark plug should be gaped at .030"(76mm)
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.
