Default Trying to start 2 old engine, Need help

If you are starting with electric starter and spin off prop more than likely you have too much fuel . Try taking out the glow plug and then use your starter to flow excess fuel out (keep your face away from plane when you do this because it usually comes out in a cloud (bad on eye balls). Correct direction is ofcourse counter clockwise facing engine. Close high speed needle and then back out 1-1/2 to 2 turns and try starting from there. The OS should run.
