Default RE: Trouble Starting SK90 Engine

bbs,
Please don't use your finger. Use a piece of broom handle or something. It will start easier with an electric starter, but will start with a chicken stick. Make sure your ignitor is charged well. The fuel coming from the muffler could be excess from the vent line to the muffler after filling the tank. 10% nitro 18% oil will work well with engine. You can take the glow plug out to see how wet it is to see if the engine is flooded. Also, while the plug is out, test the plug with your ignitor to see if the element glows bright.
Good luck,
Darrolair
