Hi! I'm new to the forum, so please bear with me
So I just finished building my FD bike, It has a 20cc featherlite 2-stroke mounted with angle irons to my bike with a turnbuckle from the motor to the hub for tension. It tracks great, doesn't slip and when I move the bike, it sounds like the motor is starting, and it makes an occasional 'Pop' noise, but other than that it fails to start. While moving, it shakes a bit, heats up and you can feel exhaust coming out of it, and it responds to throttle (The noise it makes becomes louder) but it doesn't actually move the bike. The spark plug is new, the gas is new and mixed 40-1 with synthetic oil, and the motor used to run back when I had it on pull start. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
