agreed spark+fuel+compression=FIRE!.... when you pull the plugs are they wet?... i have had slides "hang up" due to improper reassembly and therefore you trying to start it at wide open throttle.... if you unscrew the carb "cap" and it blows out like a jack in the box then you know that was the case... put it back together and make sure you get your needle down where it belongs... let use know what you find out....
My airbox is held on by one screw, not because Im lazy but because it is less weight!

ok i just got it going and ran it around the yard it was doing ok but there was a bog in the mid range like 4600 rpm and then if you held it there it would clear it self out and take off like a bat out of hek but then after awihile of that it just lost power and did not want to go at all the clutch was engaging at 3500 but now it will rev up to 4000 -4200 and then just barely moves any ideas
