Hello everybody,

I hate to show up here begging for help, but unfortunately, that's where I'm at. As the subject suggests, I have a 2000 Blast that won't start. When I got it a few months ago, it had an oil leak from the bottom rocker box. I fixed that, and it ran, but in the process, I manged to screw up the chain adjuster. (I know; don't ask. I'm new to this, so bear with me). I took the primary case apart, replaced the adjuster, which was shredded, got it all back together, and now it won't start. The spark's good, the fuel line between the petcock and the carburetor's full. The carburetor smells like gas; I got compression in the cylinder. But still, the thing won't start. I'm stumped. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. I appreciate it.
