I have a david brown 885 gasoline. I was not getting any sparks on the spark plugs, so i replaced the cap, rotor, plugs, wires, points and condenser. Now I am getting park but can't get it to start. I hit it with ether and it sputtered and that was it. I drained the gas and put fresh in, no luck. Any suggestions?
thanks

I also have a DB 885 Gas that I inherited. I can get it started and it runs great for 10-20 minutes then it stalls. Once I can get it restarted it only will run for about 3 minutes. I know very little about engines but it sounds like it could be a fuel or air problem. Any ideas or suggestions?

Sounds as though you might be out of time, New ing. and fresh gas all you need now is compression, if the timing is not off. This is of course if you are getting fuel through the carb. any chance the carb is gummed up? a little fuel put in the intake it should run on that till it runs out if not getting it from the carb.
