TR6 Starting

I use E10 exclusively myself, Doug and while my car seldom sits more than 3 days without a little driving, I do add Marine Stabil and Marvel Mystery Oil on an irregular basis. but I do use my fuel cut off valve "religiously ".
 
So, some other thread....somebody must have steered you to valves and guides...then rings.

Honed?

Rings on right? COMPRESSION?

Caught for a bit.....at least intermittent spark.


Somebody must have steered you to float valves with no start in some other thread.

Now points.

Kill the fuel pump, no flooding, try starting fluid a couple of times.

Problem is, the actual problem has not been diagnosed. You keep DOING things adding more layers of possible issues.

Then you get to start sorting them out.
 
I agree Poolboy, I must of ruffled TOC feathers seems like he can't let it go. With all the help I got from everybody else is great! The 6 is up and running problem solved. Thanks TOC for trying to make me look foolish it didn't work. Move on!!
