thankyou for your reply ,
Im very new to this engine and as far as i was aware the pump only has 2 postions on and off ,
i have downloaded the manual but it was'nt much help,
when the engine is upto speed and i throw the decompression lever it trys to brake my wrist ,
Ive watch many vids on youtube of this model of engine being started and they all seem to be able to keep turning the engine on compression ,
whith all my experince being with petrol engines in my mind it points to a stuck valve but that doesnt make sence when it turns ok with the decompression lever in its on postion
