Default G1 wont start

I have a G1. It turns over perfectly fine and spins fast. It tries to start however it doesn't start completely it just sort of chugs. Any ideas?

Compression is around 130lb and I put on a new fuel pump so it has to be getting fuel. Also its getting plenty of spark.

If it's getting properly timed spark, then it's not getting gas! Try some starting fluid and see if it fires.

Be careful with the starting fluid as you can damage an engine with it. Little bit goes a long ways. Pull the plug and see if it's wet. If it is then your getting too much fuel and if it's dry your not getting enough. There is a chance that the plug is fouled and a new one will cure your problems.

I agree with volt_ampere. Try spraying carb cleaner in the carburetor and see if it starts, if it does then your carb probably needs a good cleaning.

I have tried spraying into the carb and still nothing. It just spins over fast and tries starting however never does. It is acting like it keeps backfiring everytime it also starts; it chugs

The plug was new. I wipe it off and after it tries starting for a little I check and it is fouled again. Bad Gas??

I took off the muffler to see if it would run without it and it is blowing out out of the exhaust wipe. Could the oil injection be bad and feeding it nonstop oil?

Sounds like your float level is too high or the needle and seat are not closing.

Should I completely take off the carb and try starting fluid into the motor then to rule that out?
