72 Kitty won't start! has spark and compression

[Lilsnackpack]

I recently picked it up for cheap. It has the t5a motor. It didn't have spark when I picked it up, but reset the points and it now has spark. I pulled the carb off and was spraying 25:1 straight in. It doesn't seem to want to start at all. After spraying a while the plug will eventually get wet. The spark is very strong. Any help would be appreciated.

It's your crank seals common problem time to swap out the motor

I know this is an old post just find it interesting that crank seals aren't available from some other engine if you could spec them out. It would be a shame to scrap out an engine over a known problem and lack of OEM Cat parts.
