Well you either are not getting gas or no spark. It takes GAS, SPARK and COMPRESSION. So take the spark plug out and see if it is wet or dry. And show me a video of the spark. Alleyoop I took the new spark plug out and it was dry what could cause it i hope it's nothing major I know it's getting gas to the fliter to the carburetor

If it is getting gas and spark the way it was cranking over is more than enough for it to start. BUT without the filter to much air is getting in. TRY THIS COVER the AIR INTAKE SIDE on the carb with your hand and crank it and see if it fires. I tried that even tried putting a cloth there I got nothing so I don't know what it is

Sorry I forgot to put the link up i did ask a friend he thinks it might be the battery it probably isn't strong enough to turn the motor over I am still waiting on the air fliter which I feel could possibly be part of the problem

Do you know how to check for SPARK? If so if it sparks then your CDI is 99 percent ok unless it has a problem with the timing. Alleyoop Honestly it's sparking a little not a very powerful spark from the looks of it

Fuel line is good it goes on the middle connector on the right side. That air filter will work. Just unscrew the boot cap off your coil wire and take your spark plug and go to a autoparts store they will set you up with one. Then just screw it back onto the coil wire and you are set. Alleyoop So I didn't completely screw everything up lol I have another spark plug boot but I'm not sure if it's any good then again I did test it and it was making a spark. Which I plan on also changing it might be part of the problem I was only getting small sparks from the spark plug

You NEED AN AIR FILTER BRO!! Make sure the clamp holding it to the INTAKE IS TIGHT. But without an air filter you will have a hard time starting it. YOU can try and by holding your hand over the AIR INTAKE side with a couple fingers open to allow SOME air but not a lot of air. Alleyoop The fuel line on the carburetor goes on the top right want to make sure I did that right
