Re: My 85' spree wont run????

Same as you have been told before. 1. Compression 2. Spark and at the right time. 3. Fuel and you still don't know if your carb is supplying fuel. If you do what is asked of you this will go quicker. You lack the skills and knowledge to fix this, yet you keep second guessing everyone. It does not m...

Re: My 85' spree wont run????

You need a filter .. An air filter? yes i know but that shouldnt stop it from starting. Some Sprees refuse to start without the air filter attached. So No it may not start without the air filter. what if i try starting it with my hand over the air intake and it still doesnt start??? isnt that what ...

Re: My 85' spree wont run????

Update!! I have tried getting the spree to run without the exhaust to see if it was colgged. it didnt start so thats not the problem. i also checked the reeds to see if they were clean and functioning properly and they were. so i guess all i have left to do is compressions test to confirm if it is o...

Re: My 85' spree wont run????

If it doesn't ignite with gas on top of the piston, it's not getting spark, or low compression. Like Bear said in another thread even if you have 40 psi compression it can blow your finger off the hole, you need to test it properly. Yes i will get another compression tester to test it. But i think ...
