Retro-gone. Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 sucking air in thro inlet manifold or carb block/gasket?
Copey Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 think its too much air getting it, try and richen it up a bit, also check that the timing is right
Yeomans22 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Posted February 14, 2009 ill have a look into that, its fine when u rev it though, i've been booting it around tonight, went straight into a flood by accident
Copey Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 ill have a look into that, its fine when u rev it though, i've been booting it around tonight, went straight into a flood by accident check timing and clean the plugs then, mine ticked over dead rough and it was the timing being miles out
Yeomans22 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Posted February 14, 2009 thanks, ill check it in the morning,
Yeomans22 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Posted February 15, 2009 the carb has a leaking diafram will this cause the poor running?
Retro-gone. Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 yeah, is it punctured ? you can do a quick repair with superglue, wont last forever but will do till you get one.
