Have you tried a couple of plugs with the SYB, if so and no peep from it I would think the motor is a dead one While you have the starter off and inspect the skirt of the piston (you can just see the bottom of it when the piston is fully down) and if there is the slightest scoring showing it is all over, it has been straight fueled
Hi NormK,
I did spray starter fluid and try the plug which I know did spark previously (Out of the head), but when I attempted to pull start it at that point, the pull start mechanism started giving me grief. When I mentioned above trying the starter and it looking like it's working OK, that was before putting SYB in.
From memory, when I looked at the skirt yesterday I saw what looked to be normal vertical wear marks up and down the piston, no gouges, scrapes or damage, but I'll confirm tonight and send through a picture.
Any idea about what's plugging up that port/vein in the starter? Ever seen that before?
