Default RE: Poulan 25 from FL trimmer


in essence you made a single cylinder desiel well maybe not but the concepts are the same.
Just running on the high octane fuel and the glow plug is lid all the time. I was wondering if I can hand start it. I got luck one time. Other than that when it popped it turned one way and than back and then forth again. Just didn't have enought momentum to go through the second compression. But with starter it goes easy.

Then I checked how does it run when I cut the power from the glow plug. I rune very uneven like on self igniting from exhaust gasses. Then I connected glow again and it started to run without any hasitation again. When I cut the glow power in idling it just died.
