B&S motor not starting

I'm out of options.

- New oil

- Gasoline is flowing

- Sparkplug works

- Battery is charged

but it just wont start. Is there anything i'm missing. Pedalswitch and seatswitch are working. If i take out the sparkplug i can see it sparks. I even got shocked trying this 😁

In the video, you can hear 4 start attempts.

The first is with the throttle lever (turtle–rabbit) in the middle, the second on rabbit, the third on full rabbit, and the fourth varies.

It seems there is no ignition from the gasoline. Does it has to do something with the valves maybe?

B&S carburator

Where is this bolt/screw for?

There is a small hole at the bottom, and it takes quite a bit of force to unscrew it.

B&S Valves adjustment

Hi there, i"m trying to get this engine running. It's a B&S 11Hp 259707 flathead engine.

It starts, runs for 30s and spits out fuel via the airintake.

The carburateur is totally cleaned so i think it has something to do with a wrong setting of the intake valve.

When i openend the chamber where you see the springs there was a lot of fuel flowing out of it.

Is this normal?

Anyone a idea how to adjust those valves?

Thanks

Can someone tell me the DMX-chart?

It's in 4 channel mode so i think it's

  1. Dim coarse

  2. Dim fine

  3. CCT 2800-6500K

  4. No idea, maybe spot>flood or something?

I'm not sure about the above and the manual doesn't help me either.

Thanks!
