Default RE: T-750 starting problems

Hi Tommy,
I just happen to scan across this. Although I am not a rep or anything I might be able to help. Rotation of the can is irrevelant. Check the plug end filament. Take a hobby knife and slowly pull it out 1-2 coils usally 1/8-3/32". Also you can turn the plug temp up. Remember it only glows for a sec or two. Depending on the plug if it is a Rossi 8 you can go up to 65-70. A good plug # to start is 45-50 at 85 degrees. You really dont want to mess with your #'s much when you get it set up. Temp and humidity play a small role on starting usally all you would ever want to do is raise plug temp if it is cold or damp. Powermax is all I use and I have had alot of engines.

On one engine I had, very similar brand it always had trouble lighting off. Once lit it would start the rest of the day problem free. I always said it just needed to warm up.(Cure but not reccomended) BBQ lighter.
