Model e25rend...So another issue with the motor... ran great the other day after replacing ignition. Even had it idling better than ever after a couple adjustments. Won't start today..have a good spark, carb is clean, there is a pop every now and then but not turning over...any ideas?

Probably not starting, but only firing....no go. Need to revisit your work, Ole. Did it return to what it did before you did the ignition work?
 
Ha! Remember that old "Twilight Zone" with William Shatner? That Gremlin ripping at the engine cover on that DC4?.....think it was a DC4. Maybe DC3. DC3 had only 2 Pratt Whitney Wasp radials. Shatner eventually goes bonkers and breaks out the window in the night time rain/clouds....shoots the Gremlin with a revolver. I was just a kid.....but after that I was always watching those engines closely out the window.
Go ahead.....Google up "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet". Great clip to view.

Yes, here it is.
Certainly are some strange things that make mechanics sometimes look like fools. I keep my dunce cap in the shop, just to help maintain my humility.
