I just finished rebuilding my 12a engine (1983) everything is back together now,
I had it idleing for about 10 mins and it ran perfect,
but then i shut it off and i can't seem to get it started again,
just wondering if there is some common problems after a rebuild I should know about, or maybe a list of the things I should check.



one more thing:

is it possible to get the rotors in wrong, I made sure I got them back in the same housing that they came from, and the gear faceing the right way, but I im not sure if this matters...........ok say I put the first rotor in and one of the tips were at 12 O clock pointing stright to the side of the housing dose the second roter have to be in a special realtion to the first like 90○ or 180○. lol im scaird now cus i didn't check, although the movie (one from atkins) I was using to help me reassemble the engine didn't say anything about it

 

Any chance that your timing is off?

 

i checked the timing too, its good

 

everything is the same as when it was running good , only when i got it to run i still had trouble actuly starting it had to give it a lot of gas
