engine problems
I have a 1980 kitty cat. it stalled on me one day and i have not been able to get it started. I checked the plug, compreesion, and even put a brand new carb on it and still won't start. If i spray fuel into the carb it will fire but thats all it will do. Looking for any advise, i am at a loss.

seals
racing kitty is right on
take the carb off and put your hand over the intake, my guess it that you have no suck, it is sucking air into the crank case throught the seals and not the carb. it is a pretty simple rebuild, when I did my friends the parts were about $50.00 that was because I put in new rings and honed the cyl since I was in there. other wise you could do it for closer to $20. and you time.
