03 300 not running

[tophat]

Hi guys, my first post so the drinks are on me :0)

I have recently bought an 03 300 GG. It needs some work but it was a cheap purchase.

I did have it running but it would not idle, it would just die. After some messing with the carb to clean the jets and check the float hight it now will not start for nothing. Well it does try on the first kick but just does not go after that.

I have a good spark and have checked the carb over again and all is fine. I have good compression too and each time I take the spark plug out it is wet with fuel.

Im used to KTM's and have some experience with off road/MX bikes so not a complete newby.

Does anyone have any other ideas at to what I should be looking at on the GG to help get it running again?

Cheers
