Really bad compression, and gasoline boiling in the carb when engine is shut off. However, the latter will start after cranking on it a bit. -- "This space for rent." |

Or sometimes just a bad starter (if it doesn't crank when it's hot). Also, check to make sure the accelerator pump diaphrams aren't cracked and leaking all over the place. Cheers, |

In line with your comment, if he has headers, he may be frying the starter and it won't turn the motor over hot. -- "This space for rent." |

Have you checked: cylinder compression plugs wires fuel pressure fuel filter Once you get it running, does it run OK? Cheers, |

Gas in the carb bowl is boiling and spilling down the carb throat. The cure is a carb spacer, preferably a phenolic one that won't transfer as much heat. Also, you can get a very thick (about a quarter inch) carb gasket/spacer. Easy fix. -- "This space for rent." |
