sorry if I sound dumb, new to working on small engines. haven't done much with them till now.
the plug is wet when I pull it out after a few pulls so I'm pretty sure it is getting fuel.
spark and compression are another story. I put a screwdriver in the boot to look for spark and it will spark on the first pull then nothing much after that.
compression is low I think, hooked up a gauge and only got 30 lbs.
all wires from the oil sensor are disconnected and I tried starting it with the switch unplugged and with it plugged in and the ground off like I had read in other forums.
the cam did come out when I was working on it, I reinstalled it with the dots together, that part I made sure of because I read a lot of similar post where that was the problem.
as for the governor being out, I am in the process of getting the parts needed to run with out the governor in, I'm am just trying to get the engine running right now before I move on with my project.
