Default DLE-20 Won't Start After Trying Everything!

HELP! This thing is driving me batty! I've had this engine for quite a while now. Then one day in a hover, the engine up and died on me. I bought a new plane and installed this same engine. But I can't get it running. I have had it running a couple times and the last time I got it tuned up really well. Now I only get pops out of it. Here is what I've done so far:

Replaced the spark plug. NGK CM6
Replaced the ignition.
Replaced the ignition pickup.
Cleaned the carb completely.
Replaced the carb and reed valve. Now has Walbro.
Removed the cylinder head and cleaned the carbon of the top of the piston and out of the top of the cylinder head.
Checked for instructions on the Jtec Wraparound Pitts muffler.
Replaced the clunk filter and fuel line.

Did I miss anything? Think that's it.
