Hi Karl
Be sure that your battery have enough power!
Even a miner drop in battery-capacity will result in starting problems.
The battery must be in good condition and be well charged.

seen is to start with the throttle completely shut. This ensures the
carbs are on the correct settings for the start mode. Mine will not
start or even try until I pull the throttle to absolutely Zero. If it
won=92t start then probably the idle jets need resetting but where you
commence doing that will need you to research the procedure.

I am able to start on one magneto for a softer start. This is not my
year, but at least the glider wings have been up a few times.
