I've got a new unfired engine that I just installed. I can turn it over by hand with the plug out. When I pedal trying to start, I get friction and resistance but the engine wont turn over. I get maybe two rotations of the engine within 60 ft of pedaling. This is with the clutch cable completely undone (ruled out cable mis-adjustment). Do I have a bad clutch right out of the box? Is there a trick to getting the engine to turn over?
