Re: 83 robin top end
Are you sure you got the rings into their grooves. Sounds like you have a ring dragging. That's a 2 cycle and you should be able to turn the motor over easily by hand. And slowly turn it past the compression stroke. If you can do this, so can the starter. Providing the starter is working correctly and battery is charged. Hope this helps.
