I bought this motor as a project motor for a dingy.<br /><br />it has new rings, new plugs, good coils, new points, new condensers, new water pump, fair compression, a rebuilt carb and a gravty feed fuel system<br /><br />It tries to run but will not sustain itself,<br />I know I forgot to put a new O-Ring on the top of the crank when I had it apart, the old one is there and it looked servicable. When I try to start it and pull the choke out fuel drips from the carb.<br /><br />I have connected my drill to the flywheel nut and spun it and it tries to run, it fires and the plugs get warm but it just will not keep running on it's own.<br /><br />my Interteck manual sucks, it does not give any overhaul or repair info, just basic tune up stuff.<br /><br />Can anyone help me figure what I may have forgotten to do.<br /><br />New reed valve gaskets are not avail and I had to make my own. I need to know what these gaskets look like
