new motor sled wont start

everyone has made some good points. I have checked most. new spark plugs with good spark, cant switch the fuel lines (one connection is bigger then the other), Ill look again for grounds not hooked up, stator pickups I assumed were all done by Indy Specialties and my lights and everything flash when I pull the rope so im guessing they are fine. Oil pump is interesting, I did notice you can just wind this piss out of it when hooking it up. I assumed that you were just winding the spring for more or less tension and it didn't matter to the pump. I couldn't find anything about adjusting it in my book besides the adjuster screw for the the linkage. I did mix 50:1 premix in the first tank of fuel that im trying to start it with. Plan now is to take a day or 2 break and go at it again see if I see something obvious. Then this coming sat its going to the dealership. Maybe they can see something on the computer im missing.

Haha, should have read the whole post...concerning the oil pump arm adjustment, only turn it the least amount of turns to apply tension. If you can spin it constantly without tension, than its not mounted on the oil pump arm.
