Default help quick!

i just tried to start my .18tm for the first time and the ez start wont turn the engine. I have heated it up and that kinda helps, with the glow plug out it turns fine. Is this to do with the compression, how do i solve it?

Yep, it's compression. Try loosening the plug a little when you start it and once the engine is running just snug it down.
