Default RE: Saito 150S Always Backfires

Success!!!

Here's what I did, I went ahead and double checked the valve clearance. Adjusted both valves to have a slight drag on the gauge per Jay's suggestion. Went ahead and double nutted the prop to eliminate the prop nut loosening. Went to hand start normally and BANG it kicked back and caught my ring finger...OUCH[:@] Good thing I was wearing a glove. Tried it again and son of a bit#%, it did it again. Now my finger is throbbing So, I tried flipping it backwards and she started up. Ran fine until my igniter died. Tried it again (backwards flip.....finger still throbbing) with a new igniter and she started again.

Thanks for all help guys!!!
