got some engine start spray for my 2 stroke gen (identical to king), worked great.
I have some of that and it sure works. Trouble is, last time it increases the compression for the pull cord so much it snapped back out of my hand and that plastic drive pawl broke off somehow too.
I have got things better now so all I have to do when I first flood it, is remove the spark plug to air out in there without spraying down the hole, put the plug back after drying it off, and next few pulls it starts.
It is still a very hard pull IMO, not like the Honda gen or lawnmower, so it pulls the gen over instead of the cord out. Working on that.
One place I was reading about all this suggested a hard pull was a bad balance between intake and exhaust from carbon at one end or other or both. I am using SeaFoam for the intake clean, but have not taken off the exhaust to soak it etc like Mr Wiz mentioned. I did do the air filter sponge clean job and have the new spark plug. I expect things will improve as I use it more.
