[QUOTE="hlb3, post: 1561331, member: 16592"] Got it running. I tested a few more electrical things and jumped the solenoid and it still wouldn't turn over all the way. I pulled the spark plug and tried it and it cranked just fine. So I pulled the valve cover and adjusted the valves. Put it back together and it fired right up. Apparently when the valves get out of adjustment the pressure in the cylinder gets too high and the starter doesn't have enough torque to turn the engine over. Never would have thought to check that, so I am glad I found the video on YouTube. [/QUOTE]
