I use a rubber plumbing cap, in plumbing dept. Simple cap with hose clamp. Or could use expansion plug. I think plug is more $$
Hey guys, guess what I did

Thread derailment ahead:
I use a rubber "expansion plug" freeze plug from the auto parts store. Most freeze plugs are "drive-in" types but some people like the rubber expansion plugs for boats and vehicles that sit out a lot. You can get them in 1/8" sizes I believe.

I got a good deal on some gauges last week on ebay. They are Ashcroft brand, 0-15 psi with .250" NPT . I've had a couple of these gauges on my hopper system for 2 or 3 years now and they are good gauges. I bought 3 for $16.80 shipped, one for a leak down tester and the other 2 as back ups for my hopper system. Here's a link 0-15PSI 1/4NPT 2 1/2IN DIAL PRESSURE GAUGE ASHCROFT NEW | eBay Looks like he went up on the price since I bought mine.

Thanks man, It means a lot! And yeah! It was awesome! The first time when I painted it, it took like 150 kicks, now it starts right up!! Glad I found the problem
Well, nice to know I fixed NOTHING, by doing this, back I fouling plugs dumping gas out of the overflow not idling and not starting after 150 kicks, ive officially lost ALL hope and the pos is going to sit like this for the rest of its life
The most frustrating part is that cut started so easily last night, it started in a few kicks today ran for a little bit I adjusted the idle got it warmed up and it shuts off.. It's still to hot to touch, plug dry, won't start pouring has out of the overflow.. No more for me..

Don't get mad. Take a week or two break from it then start working on it. Your just getting burned out and stressed from working on it so much. A break will make things more clear and easier.
im with that^^^ chill for a bit then hit it tomorrow. its something stupid. dont sweat it!
I don't know what else to do!!? I've tried everything I can think of! Even everything my dad could think of!! It's got 135 psi conpression
ok, here it is, write down all the things you Have tried, then Tomorrow, try the things you have not. process of elimination. relax bro, its something simple. dont beat yourself up. B)
