Default RE: Pullstart Airplane Engine?

Okay...tried flipstarting...

The engine fired up perfectly for about 5 mins then it suddenly died...I flipped it for 15 mins with no sucess. Then the meter on my Ni-starter said I had a bad plug...I just assumed it was a dead battery so I swapped it for a dry cell ignitor (full D-size battery) and it still wouldn't flip. I am thinking I am running it rich...its 8 clicks back on the high speed needle from max RPM. Its humind here too so I think that might have something to do with it...
