Well first make sure they are not stuck...This happened to me once on a old Honda and the fuel dumped in the crankcase....

Thanks yeah i think it was stuck or something. The needle that came with the rebuild kit looks a bit longer than the old one as well so i just put the old one back in and got fuel flowing fine. Now seams as if my battery is now not strong enough to turn it over. Always something huh..
