We cant get our 2010 to fire. My grandpa owned it before he died and it was passsed on to my dad. My grandpa had worked on it for several years and couldn't get it running. I am 16 years old and am trying to get it running and am having a hard time.The crawler hasn't ran in at least 6 years but had fortunatly been sitting in a shed. Two of the valves were stuck and i got them loose and replaced the coil,condenser,fuel lines,some wires,spark plugs and wires,and the rotor. Also it didn't have a switch so i had one in my barn that I think was made for a lawn mower but had the same connections as the crawler. I can get it to turn over and sometimes have spark. sometimes its week and sometimes its bright blue. When I put the spark plugs back in the engine it seemed like it didn't have no spark. It wouldn't fire even though I primed the cylinders with a little gas. When I worked on it in the fall I shot a little ether in the carb and smoke did roll out of the exhaust but it would not fire. After a while of cranking it backfired really really load. I will have to admit it scared me! It backfired 2 times after craking and working on it for about 2 hours. I don't know what the order is for the plug wires that enter the distributer cap, such as what cylinder plug wire should go where into the cap. What should I do, I have run out of ideas and need some pointers. Every day I think about it one day running and that is the only thing that keeps me working on it and that knowing my grandpa will be proud if I get it running. He worked for John Deere back in the day and he worked and worked on the 2010 industrial crawler/highlift. I really want to get it running and if anybody could tell me want else to do or give me a checklist to go through or anything it would greatly be aprieciated. Thanks to everyone who has helped me and thanks to everyone on this board. Stephen

Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
