has it got spark

john2014, September 2014
i would put a new spark plug in it mate its a good chance the insulator nose is fouled with the extra fuel from the carb flooding being on its side from the fall it had,the fuel washes loose carbon off the head and piston crown which sticks to the insulator nose.basically put a new plug in and see what its like.
