My friend gave me his Husky T435 that doesn't run. New plug, fresh fuel, has good spark. I haven't been able to compression test it yet as my tester doesn't go down to M10. Took the carb apart and sprayed it with cleaner. Set screws to L 2.5 and H 2 turns out. When I had the muffler off I spun the flyweel and noticed bubbles coming out from the corners of the cylinder, video below. Any ideas?

Piston looks good. Bubbles are normal.

Use starting fluid and hold throttle wide open, you might have a flooded crankcase. Also becuase you do nto have the proper adapter, soap up the crank seals and the crankcase seam, plug up the carb with a blue rag and the exhaust port with piston all the way down. Blow air in the spark plug hole (no less than 90psi. You should not get bubbles out the seals anywhere. This is a redneck way of doing it but it will work good enought.

Also pull the flywheel and make sure the key did not shear.
