iv just went to fire scoot up after winter, and it wont go,
changed plug, took carb to bits, no joy fuel going through when tap open,
drained petrol from tank, lots of tiny debris in it, stainless tank i have, so put new fuel in, nothing, great spark, it goes to fire up, sometimes it will idle a few secs, then die.

It ran great all last year, timing maybe? i have elec ign and a rewound stator, which has been great,

Couldn't get mine to start either, and that's fitted with a Casa kit. Mind you that was weeks ago and I shoved it back in the garage and left it. I must look at it sometime. :lol:
