OK, my 100 is all together, new 6 volt battery, 2 new battery cables, appears to be wired correctly -- why wont it start ?
At first it would backfire thru the exhaust, and I checked the position of the rotor when # 1 was TDC, and the plug wires were 1 position off, but in the correct order.I moved plug wires 1 position over.
Now I may see some white smoke up thru the exhaust as it turns over, but no start and run.
If I had to guess, I'ld say no fuel, since it seems to have combustion air & fire. The carburetor was overhauled with a TISCO kit. I closed the mixture screw and backed it out 1 turn per IH Operator Manual for the 100. I pulled the new plugs out several times today, and they aren't wet or fouled. Heck, they didn't even really smell the gasoline. That's really why I suspect a fuel problem.
