Big backfire when starting..

[Slammed88blaze]

How's it going guys I have a bone stock blaster here that I acquired as part of a trade and I can't seem to get it to start... When I try kick it over I get a pretty nice backfire... I'm assuming the motor is still factory aside from the fund header pipe.. Could it be outta time and is there an adjustment?

There is no timing adjustment but there is a woodruf key that aligns everything. it could have sheared off. You will need a flywheel puller to get flywheel off. If it spins freely than the nut is loose and the key is gone. Also check that your reeds arent chipped and that they are sealing.

A flooded engine will also cause non starting and backfiring!

Be sure to ONLY use a Blaster flywheel puller. No jaw pullers, no hammers, no hillbilly methods.
Use a new plug too.
