Hello tiger,
Seems like you have made some good progress.

The smoke seems to suggest it is trying to start.

I would see if it fires with a spark plug blocking the decompressor port.

If it fires, then you have a decompressor issue.

Also, if a 2 stroke is flooded with fuel, it wont start.
Remove the plug, clean it, pull the starter to drive excess fuel out, reassemble & try again.


Happy is he who penetrates the mystery of things.
