Thanks for the pointers @andyfrost, @sidevalve5.

I’ve checked spark is OK and had the engine running briefly when dropping some fuel down the carb.

Initially there was a horrific screeching sound but after cleaning the starter clutch and oiling the tiny felt pad on that, it now runs for a few seconds without any awful sounds.

I’ve got a new diaphragm and a couple of other parts that were missing from the carb so hopefully I can get those fitted this week and get it running properly.
