What to do if IAME Engine starter cranks but engine won't start?
- J
  Jermaine ThompsonAug 2, 2025
  If the starter cranks, but your IAME Engine won't start, several issues could be at play. It might be due to ignition failure, which would require a replacement. Check the H.T. coil connection for any issues, including grounding problems; replace the coil if necessary. Also, a wet or damaged spark plug can prevent the engine from starting, so replace it. Lastly, inspect the fuel feed system and its connections. Consider replacing the membranes and gaskets on the fuel pump.

How to fix IAME Engine when starter will not crank?
- Y
  yhooperAug 6, 2025
  If the starter on your IAME Engine won't crank when you push the start button, the issue could stem from several causes. Begin by checking and tightening any loose connections on the starter cables, wiring loom grounding, and battery connections. Damaged cables or a faulty START button should be replaced. If the battery is discharged, recharge it. Finally, inspect the starter itself for failure and replace the relay if it has failed.

Why is there a drop in IAME Engine performance?
- J
  James HughesAug 10, 2025
  A drop in IAME Engine performance can be caused by several factors. Bad compression may be the culprit, so check the piston status. Also, a bad carburetor adjustment can affect performance. Insufficient gas fuel flow can also cause this issue, so check the gasoline flow lines. Lastly, a dirty inlet silencer or filter can restrict airflow; check and clean them.
