 Sounds to me like your engine is Hydro locking. Take your spark plugs out see if the engine I'll turn over with the plugs out. You may have a carb leaking fuel into the cylinder that may be causing it.

Thanx Tom, but I ordered one on Sat night. Rich I did pull the plugs and the Front left cyl. blew out a bunch of gas so hydro lock was on the list to check and Jason had mentioned it as well since it does not have a decompression solenoid it was getting narrowed down so now to find some one to do the carbs and get them in sync to also help stop my back fire issues that you all give  me grief about. I kinda liked having that to shag the deer off the roads. LOL
