Well do you have a prop on it? I once had a Hirth F33 single cylinder that no one could pull through, no one. With plug removed it pulled fine. Called Rec Power and he asked me that same question, we thought he was nuts. But we installed the prop and it pulled through just fine and started right up. Ran great till I sold it. Guess the prop weight acts like a flywheel and helps with overcoming the next compression stroke. Try reattaching the prop and see what happens? Just an idea.
