so i havent started up my maxx in bout 2 months,and when it did run this is problem #1 i had to open the high speed screw almost all the way then slowly close it? but now i try to start it back up, and not a thing, ignitor fully charged, fuels only 2 months old, so i primed it n i blow in to the puressure line from the exhaust just to make sure and nothing, i opened up the high speed nothing so i have no clue. i took the glow plug lookd fine, wasent flooded, but i did notice that it lookd like their was "stuff" on top of the cylnder head so idk, next thing is to ry useing a drill to start it iv always had problems with my pull but is their anything else i can try?
 
Tear it apart, clean it good and seal it back up. Make sure there isn't any debris in the hsn. Use sensor safe, high temp copper rtv. Use it on the header, back plate and carb. Get a new glow plug. Let the rtv dry for at least 4 hours at room temp.
 
Obviously it didn't help any or the engine would have started. If there's any debris at all in the engine, the plug may already be damaged. On top of the fact that the sleeve is probably scarred to hell. Make sure the fuel lines are clear and in good shape. Check that the fuel cap is sealing, too.
