Do you prime it?
What needle settings do you have?

Status: offline 		First of all put fuel in the tank. Then prime some times till it reaches the carburator through the fuel line.Check if your battery igniter has enough power to mae the glow plug glow red hot! Then put the battery igniter on the glow plug and pullstart several times (Don't pull it much, 20-25cm each time is fine). It would be wise to give some throtle in order to start easier.If it stil doesn't start then clean the engine install a new glow plug and try again.

Status: offline 		And don't forget when you are going to start the engine via the pullstart, do short QUICK pulls. That "quick: is the secret, is not a gas engine that wants slow pulls.

Oh, and since you are new to this, i will ask something but don't misunderstand me, ok? You put nitro fuel, right?

Status: offline 		A good way to prime is have the carb open and either put a finger over the carb opening and pull the cord a couple of times, or block the exhaust hole and pull the cord

Status: offline 		I prefer the second way but I usually disconnect the silicon tube from the pipe and blow air in it till the fuel reaches the carb. Then I tap the exhaust and pullstart 2-3 times.

Status: offline 		That's what i do too. I am using a starter box and if i am going to prime the engine using the starter box, then i waste battery. Blow through the fuel tube to the tank is good, but of course don't overdo it, ok?

Status: offline 		reset your carb to factory settings...it may run really rich, but atleast it will start...provided everything else is the way it should be...

does the engine still have good compression?
no leaks?
head shim?
no clogged needle valves?


pull the glow plug and check your igniter and plug while its not on the engine...its should get hot within 1 to 2 seconds, and should be very bright..
