[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 233416, member: 425"] TDC is that really loose portion of the lever movement, right after compression is the highest. Kick extremely slow through the compression until it lets off and wants to move easily again. Then a full kick from there usually will spin the engine fully a few times. If it hasn't been started in a while, a bump start is probably your best bet at getting it to actually run. Check for fuel in the cleaned carb, and spark on the plug. Good luck! -BIG DAN:thumb: [/QUOTE]
