Re: Engine not starting - checked everything - no more idea

Okay, but mechanical must the fuel go into the combusion chamber and there is no fuel. The electrical problem may come then when fuel is in the cylinders.

Re: Engine not starting - checked everything - no more idea

Rotor is turning, gap is okay

The problem is, i think, that the fuel is not going in the cylinders. The plugs are complete dry.

Checked all the way with endoskop.. Free

Spark is there.
