Blaster not starting up...

[Based]

IT's an 01 blaster and it's won't start up. I kick it multiple times and nothing it almost turns over but it just won't Sometimes after kicking it a few times it lets out a powerful puff of air from the muffler (almost like a backfire). We changed the reeds, changed the spark plug (wea regetting spark), put oil in, and have gas. Gas flows through the carb cuz when we turn the screw on the carb to let iit gas flows through. Idk why it won't start up. It started up one time as I opened that screw on the carb and let gas come out...but never again.

Here's a vid

of what happens.

Sounds like it may be bad reeds.

The reeds were bad and I changed them today. It's still doing the same thing. This vid is with the new reeds.

You must use a Blaster flywheel puller, no 2-3 jaws or hammer/prybar. Have you completely cleaned the carb, especially pilot jet/circut? Fresh gas?

If you have been continually kicking you could have saturated the crankase with fuel.

Pull the spark plug out , turn off the petcock, drain the fuel from the carb.

Hold the throttle wide open and kick twenty or thirty times until nothing spits out of the plug hole,.

Put in a fresh plug and try to start it again.
