I have taken possession of some modified unit's

gx160 t2
arc predator flywheel
arc conrods
252 lift cam
14c head
stainless valves
26lb springs stainless spring retainers

once running there sounding meaty but bloody hard to fire up, strong spark, checked on the head, cam timing checked and dots alligned.

The bowl is full of fuel

carbs cleaned and changed,with various jets used, same issues.

basically they take 12-15 pulls to finally fire into life, then run sweet, turn them off and same again to get them running.

Any ideas?
