Default RE: DL-50 engine


ORIGINAL: raypadro

Hello I hope somebody can help me here I have a DL50 is about 1 1/2 years old and last week after several succesfull flights the engine don't want to start anymore,this is strange to me because it was running perfect.The only way it wants to start is if I leave the shoke on.

I really need your help to find out what happened.
How's the compression? Any grinding noises? Can you move the tip of the prop back and forward?
If this is all OK it's most likely a carb cleaning issue.
