ha your haveing a **** of a day

u say it fires are u referring to the spark or are u reffering to it firing every now and again?

did u clean the jets?
is there good fuel flow?
take the fuel tank lid off

 

[pooh3700]

im referring to the spark and i have cleaned almost everything and the fuel is flowing good.

 

[fowler]

put a teaspoon of petrol in the spark plug hole and try again
