I have got everything all put together and ready to go, I have spark, the cylinders are getting fuel and the compression is perfect. But it wont fire. the starter spins beutifully. I still need a new battery but even jumping it doesn't do anything. The only thing I can guess is timing. The front cylinder is on TDC, and the F mark on the fly wheel lines up with strobe. Any ideas???

Timing isn't usually adjustable but I'm unsure. Stumped me I guess. What is the compression PSI? Did you pour fuel into the cylinders?

Got it to finally fire. Yeah!!! The front plug wire was loose at the CDI unit. It was sparking but very week. BUT then, hooked up a hose to the cooling system and there must be a leak somewhere filled the whole damn thing with water. mother! so now we get to start all over again. at least this time I know where the trouble spots are.
