Well, me and my sisters boyfriend went in halves on a 5hp B & S Streaker go Kart. The kart is in pretty good condition. Needs a little clean up but nothing major wrong with the body. Him and I are both mechanically inclined to an extent but we've neither one ever had any small engine exp. Well, we got the kart home and fired it right up just as we did before we bought it. One good lap around the yard and that's all she wrote. Since then we have taken apart the carb and cleaned it and removed the tank and cleaned it out. Boy was it nasty. We finally got it all back together and fired it up. It ran for a little bit but we opted not to take it for a spin. We let it cool down and checked the spark plug. It looked like the rest we had put in it. Fouled looking but not wet and didnt smell of gas. We tried to crank it back up...and well, nothing. We determined that we aren't getting any spark. I've priced a new magneto for it and altenator. Any other issues that I may have with this motor? What are some things I can look for that may be my problem? Any help with this can really help me out... thanks in advance.
