There is fuel,there is compression(loads),and there is spark?What the hell is missing?
If there is fully charged battery it should, unless its putting out too much voltage, then it might just kill your CDI along with everythign else.

You might have just flooded the engine / killed the plugs, they die easy

Have you checked the vacuum pipe to the petrol tap ? Mine split causing the same problem.

I had a similar issue with the HRC tap mod. If you take the tap apart, make sure that the little rubber foot it through the plastic disc. My rubber diaphram had a little split and was intermittantly letting fuel through, but not enough to get it running properly. Might be worth a look. Do you have a fuel line coupling to detach the carbs from the tank and stop any fuel getting through when the petrol is turned off?
