I’ve got a coleman Ct100u minibike that has spark but will not start. New carburetor (old one broke in a crash). I’ve pull started it about 30 times but then I gave up. I’ve got fuel, and all the essentials but I just cannot get it to even attempt to start. pull start is easy, no restriction when I pull it. It sat for about 6 months previous to this issue.

Starting takes:
- Fuel
- Air
- Spark
- Compression
And these in the right order and proportions. You said:

That doesn't sound right. You should feel some resistance when the engine is on the compression stroke. I'd start checking there. Try removing the spark plug and pulling the starter and see if it's moving air in and out as expected.
