C-125 Won't Fire

Before it broke it got cross-threaded so we bought a helicoil kit and did that, and it worked fine. Now we found that when we sprayed the fuel starter it seemed to seep out of the helicoil type bush that attaches onto the spark plug.

Did you use high temp RTV as mentioned in the helicoil instructions? I do not know if you can remove a helicoil and put in a new one.  may need to consider a new head.

 

Guess loctite at this point won't hurt.  Does fuel spur out of the pump out put while you crank?

I will check if the fuel spurs out tomorrow.

Fuel spurs out of the pump. I started it and it went for a good minute but I had to balance the choke constantly and it was just throwing white smoke out everywhere, you could barely see anything. Also there was some type of liquid running out of the exhaust and carb which I pretty sure was fuel.

Tried again but just turns over and doesn't fire.

You mite want to consider getting somebody to come over and give you a hand.
