That is perplexing! :?

With ether it shouldn't matter, but I know letting the gas have a little time to evaporate can help: one crank to suck it in and one to fire, it should be running.

If ether didn't do it [with the fact the tubes drank 3Tbs of gas I presume they're not plugged at all, so it should have went straight down], that sure implies spark.

But, except the impulse not reingaging, the mag sounds like it's operating right, so then I think the choke or something else in the carb is up to no good. Still wouldn't completely rule out a leak, yet with fuel in the priming tubes not bringing it alive, nothing on the fuel side should be the culprit.

Since that impulse still has the reingaging issue, it's worth a call to Mainely Magneetos anyway, then you can ask too if they know of something overlooked here.

Since it hasn't been given a good workout yet, I doubt the rings are seated, but prevent starting, that seems like a non issue too.
