Won't start

[george123]

Hello all iv managed to get a spark to my sj and fuel is going through but I can't seem to get her started? Any help thanks

[Jordi]

How long since it was last ran? Is it running the original carb?

[george123]

Was running fine 2 years ago buts it's been stood for 2 years haha and yeah it's running original carb

engine i just put in mine must have been sat for years without running, just kept it on starter for about 5 mins before it kicking in to life, is it a 410 or 413?

Get a screen wash size cap, fill it with petrol, while some one is turning it over pour it directly down the carb. Repeat a couple of times (3-4 max) if it doesn't fire carb is probably goosed.

It's a 410 and okay where is this cap cuz the only one I see is on the from of facing towards the rad which drains it out where the float is

[Jordi]

It needs pouring in the carb aperture where it sucks the air through.

Not so easy on 410s as they are side draft carbs. Much easier on down draft carbs. You can use a small squeeze bottle to squirt the petrol into the carb but keep it small and petrol volumes to a minimum. It only take a thimble full to make them fire. If you have too much and it backfires badly you will lose any hair / receive 3rd degree burns.

Carb may need a clean through. Is the fuel getting through the carb?

Easy guide is to blow through the pipe that goes from the fuel pump to the carb. Disconnect it from fuel pump and blow. Will tell you if carb is blocked.

Ye thats the best option squesy bottle filled with fuel and squirt with fuel inthe carb and it will start

[george123]

Yeah like jordie said it's on the side so I don't know how going to do it

You need a tin of this..
It's out there and it works.
