Default Manco 606 w/ Robin ex17

Hey again guys. It's been a little over a month since last post but I have a Manco that wouldn't crank. I just moved and the kart was sitting outside so I tried to start it and it now will turn over for about 5 seconds then shut off. The only thing I have tried so far is adjusting the pilot jet screw.

If anyone has had this problem or can kinda point me in the right direction as to why the heck it wants to now turn over but not crank would be greatly apreciated.

Did you get the choke fixed? Just to be clear -the 5 seconds it's running,are you adding fuel to the carb or is it being fed fuel normally?I think I remember you saying you discovered the pulse fuel line was missing- did you get it fixed?

I do have a choke lever now. I do not have to add fuel to the carb now. And the fuel line missing thing was from a wrong motor diagram im guessing b/c on the tank there is only 1 port hole for the gas line going out. I thought there was another hole but turns out that a screw hole for the mount.

Is there a hose from the valve cover to the carb/aircleaner shroud (pulse fuel line)?This pushes air to help fuel delivery.

there the fuel line hose and also a bigger hose that looks like it comes from the aircleaner chamber to the muffler system.
