      . Installed new condenser & still no start. Has a very strong spark, fuel in carb. I did notice some fuel dripping out the exhaust. Pulled the plug & it seemed relatively dry. this whole thing is baffling to me because as I said earlier it did run, if only for a short time (30-60 seconds) a couple times. Any suggestions, 2 strokes have me puzzled

        Have you checked the reeds? Those motors are fairly well known to break reeds.

          Yes, all the reeds look good, straight & not broken. Gasket for reed plate looks good also.

            have you tried gas directly into the sparkplug hole? Not a lot of gas just a squirt. . process of elimination
