Palmer p60 wont start
- Thread starter Eddieburly
- Start date
How old is the gas? Have you physically verified spark at the plugs? Clean air filter? Have you checked ignition timing? Have you checked compression? Does the starter turn it over fast enough?
Gas is fresh .not sure how to do the rest of the suggestions . dont know how fast a starter should turn
Not much info on you tube either

Gummed up carburetor and or stuck valves are very possible in these old engines.. Problems with timing and distributor points and condenser as well.. The good thing is that it is based on the International Cub tractor engine so parts are not too expensive and fairly easy to find. Good luck with it Eddie !
