Car wont start..

[Rusty's Uncle]

If the engine runs for a short time then dies it is generally fuel. If it just pops and bangs then the timing is out as the unburnt fuel fires up either though the carb or the exhaust. Either way you will blow out any spiders

Ok rusty thanks. Well it doesn't even start at all now, it just turns over and turns over, do I just need to sort out the timing?

And any ideas why this would just happen after running before, and now it's not... I'm stuck.

I had this issue with mine. Cleaned the carb like 5 times just incase it might decide to work but no. Then I was told to check the float wasn't full off fuel and it was, tiny little hole seeping fuel in. I replaced that and have had 1400 miles free driving. Touch wood. Hope this may help and you sort it.  Also have you checked the small filter inside the carb isn't blocked
