Craftsman 358.351580 Not Starting

[lindylex]

Currently I am trying to repair a Craftsman 358.351580 chainsaw. I rebuilt the engine. It has all new gaskets, the muffler, carburetor were taken apart and cleaned in the ultrasonic cleaner. The carburetor has a new gasket kit and passes the pressure test and has no leaks. The cylinder pressure has 100 PSI. I got new gasket material in a tube for the crankcase. It has spark albeit not a new spark plug but has spark. It has a new piston ring.

It can breath, gets fuel, has spark and pressure. Not sure why it will not start. I adjusted the low and high, nothing. I dripped some fuel into the the spark plug chamber and nothing. I noticed it flooded the carburetor after lots of pulling. I am not sure what to do at this moment.

Verify flywheel has not spun on crank.

100 psi is low in my opinion . Do you have another compression tester you can try

[ SOLUTION SOLVED ] After several ohms and some repeated mythical chants. The dust settled and the neophyte noticed he never place the bearing covered in a rubber boot on the pull start side back in the groove on the bottom side of the engine.
