Make sure you got the piston on the right way, ports on the intake side. At least that was the problem I had on my 91' marothon when I did the same thing. Hope this helps.

Could have a stuck closed float valve. Recommend cleaning the carb. I had this problem a while back.

Ok did you take the whole engine apart? May have not got everything sealed up good. The engine needs a vacuume to run. Spray carb cleaner or starter fluids or the crank seals and the lower end of the motor where it splits. If it starts or fires than you have a vacuume leak. REMEMBER To JACK THE REAR END UP.So it will not take off on you
