Not a good start

Today, I was finally ready for my maiden on my 600 nsp. I was planning on runnign 2-3 tanks to get started with the breakin of the engine, but it dint went as expected.. the engine never actually even started!


Everything was checked at least twice during the build and seems to be alright, but the engine just didnt start :

My needle was 2 turns out minus a few clicks (supposed to be the correct setting for breakin) and my throttle idle is per finless video. When starting, fuel was going through the carburator, but just no explosion. The fuel clip was open and after a while, I removed the glowplug to see a lot of fuel in the piston, maybe too much. I ran the starter for a while with the fuel unplugged and the glowplug revoved to clean it out and retried, but still no luck. I also tried with a manual glow igniter instead of the 2in1 and still no luck. I tried the glow igniter directly on the glow plug in my hands and the plug goes red, so it works.

At the end, after recleaning everything to make sure there wasnt too much fuel inside, I tried to start it with the glow igniter on and the fuel clip closed. It ran for about 2-3 seconds and died, which seems to indicate a flooded engine earlier.. this is weird.

I will give it one more try this weekend...
