More info plugs wet?
Will it start if you put a little gas in each spark plug hole? |

Re: sled engine swap wont fire
Have you done any thing to prime the fuel pump and carbs?
Try a rag in the filler and just a huff or two with a air gun NOT TO MUCH DON"T SPLIT THE GAS TANK. |

Re: sled engine swap wont fire
Standard idle and air screw 1 1/2 out to start and go from there.
did you pull the pilot jet and clean with torch tip cleaners or a wire hair from a wire brush. Use the proper size screw driver to remove it |

Re: sled engine swap wont fire
The pilot jet emulsifies air and water to fuel the engine on start up, there are tiny holes that can not be cleaned with out removing it. this is a good picture.
