    Squirting gas/oil directly into the cylinders via the spark plugs and it wont fire? same for squirting fuel/oil mix thru the carb opening with the butterfly opened?

    Here is an off the wall question????? Don’t ask cuz I won’t tell ya how I know, but are the plug wires crossed?? Yes I have done that and no it did not backfire thru the carb like I thought it would… And yes it was on a Bendix ignition….

    Cheers
