Turns over good, no start

Well the engine is back together, no 155 mod though Sad

, seems
to be on an infinity back order. Question, when I put the cam
back in I made sure the large hole was at the top of the head
and the cam lobes were both facing down. The timing mark was
still lined up on the stator. Is this the correct posistion. I just
did what the spyderbox manuel said do. I have a Sahara 150.

With the engine at TDC, the large hole in cam sprocket should be pointing at the driver's seat. The two smaller holes should be even with the edge of the head.

That makes me feel alot better. Im thinking, with the battery
a little weak, maybe I just did'nt give the carb time to fill with
fuel, I did increase the size of my fuel lines and put an inline
servicable fuel filter on it. I just tried turning it over about 3 or
4 times before the battery started acting really weak. So I
stopped for the night and put my trickle charger on it. I'll try
again tonight. Checked the charger this morning before leaving
for work and it's fully charged right now. So maybe tonight I'll
hear that baby purr. Very Happy

My kinroad 150 I had trouble, It would turn over fine but wouldn't start.

So I adjusted the valves and they were so tight I couldnt get any gauge in.

After I adjusted them out to .004 and bam started right up.
