after storing my little featherweight for approximately a year and a half I am unable to start it. I'm in the process of ordering a manual from John however in the meanwhile I'm still trying to figure it out. Let me tell you what I have tried. -replaced spark plug, cleaned points, and observed 50 percent white and 50 percent blue spark when testing the plug against a cylinder head. -I have found the timing screw properly set. -I have clean the Jets in the carburetr.

So basically I have spark, fuel, and air. There's much enjoymeant today's little Seagulls motors so I'm not in a rush to break it.

If you have any clues or advised I would appreciate it.

Scott
