Take the glow plug out and turn the vehicle upside down so the engine points at the ground, and rip the cord a few times. It will spit the fuel out. Put the plug back in and try starting it.

If you have a starter box, take the plug out, put a rag or paper towel over the head and turn it over with the box. Just make sure to cover the head with something. It will shoot fuel everywhere if you don't.


BE CAREFUL when you are doing this. Make sure that you actually clear out all the dirt around the glow plug and the cooling head. Use some nitro clean as that dries fairly quick. Compressed air would be even better.Dirt is not your friend here.
