10 years ago

I have backpack blower pb265l that will not start. I have spark ,new plug ,new carb .I cleaned muffler with torch .Tried to star with ether not even a pop.Looked at piston, looks okay. Compression 110 psi.Don't know where else to look ,maybe flywheel key but looks like pia to get at. Any thoughts ?

Not to look past the obvious but did you move the switch to the start position, only because I've forgotten myself and almost pulled my arm out trying to start my blower.
