Have you played with the timing at all? If you have removed the ignition system chances are it has not been set correctly. What else has beem taken apart? is the throttle butterfly open at all when you are trying to start it, an incorrectly adjusted govenor will result in the butterfly being shut and no throttle for it to start with.

The butter fly valve is open, but i have taken off the ignition, I'm guessing that's where my problem is, I've bought a ignition module to hook up I haven't figured out how to hook it up.


Cheers
