RE: Fuel Issues
G'day
Another thing to remember - if the Low Speed Needle is tuned too lean, the engine may not start AND/OR the High Speed Needle will be ineffective. If you pulled the LSN out to clean things, you may have put it back too far? Try opening it a turn or two if all else fails.
I have been given several engines by people who could not get them to run. In all cases, the LSN was simply screwed too far in. Another I bought on eBay was the same.
