Re: Tillotson Carb Question

Finally got back to this project (3 months later!!!). I re-installed the reed plate, gaskets and manifold, this time with gasket sealer on the gaskets. Same result — will start on starter fluid but not on gas/oil. I tried new gas too. So, based on what I have read above, it looks like I need to take the motor apart and see if it is a piston ring and/or main bearing seal and/or crankcase seal. Unless there are any silver bullets I have missed. Thanks again fellas!
