Other than timing just right been great. That morning it just cranked fast with no hint of spark or gas. Just like I blew a belt again.

Hi,

Anything is possible. Something may have been put together incorrectly or the belt simply failed. Were the parts OEM or aftermarket?

Do you need help installing a new one?

Let me know.
