Thanks for the reply's......

I'll choke the heck out of it and see if it helps.... was worried about flooding it. I agree it should at least be firing, that's what makes me confused.

I'm using the glow adapter from Wacker Engines, and I noticed by visual inspection with the cylinder removed that it rides higher in the spark plug threads, thus reducing the compression... I removed the cylinder gasket and and machined the lip around the plug last night... this set the glow plug at the same level where the spark plug had been..... I'll keep testing.

Also richened the low side needle 1/2 turn from where it ran before (gas only with mag.). I read on this thread that the engines seemed to like a richer low side.

What are you guys using to keep glow power connected? The glow plug is seated so far down in the adapter that a traditional glow plug igniter can't lock on, and keeps falling off when I crank the engine.

I'll keep on trying... I don't give up easily
