    Im with ya on a troublesome JW!

    They are usually such easy motors to tune. I put one on the bench this morning that doesn’t want to start either. All new ignition, carb kit, etc…

    If I figure mine out Ill let ya know 😉 Sandwich break.

    It will run if I mist pre mix into the carb throat for a sec, so thinking it cannot PULL the fuel into the crankcase. The clogged exhaust might be my issue as well as yours?
