Default Bee II that won't start on Kero

I purchased a used Bee II that previous owner had been using as a gas start. After setting ECU back to KERO AUTO turbine goes into
start sequence but all I'm getting is a big cloud of smoke. So, obviously getting kero and igniter must be hot so why isn't it burning? I did
try slowing pump start pw from 25 to 20 then to 15 but just made the smoke plume a little smaller. Igniter power is at 6.3 v and it's running
a 2 cell 7.4v li mag fully charged battery. Suggestions ??
Thanks,
Arnold
