Oh dear 😬😬😬  The problem is sorted though? What was causing it?

Hello Julie
I'd love to give you a definitive answer!
I had the carbs off again and took the top and bowl off.
Compressed air all over it and ran thinners through it. Did a bench synch and checked float height per your guide. Thanks...heard the term, had no idea what it was.
TrickyMicky mentioned ht leads and caps. The offending cylinder had a bit of an insulation breakdown right at the cap. Spark was fat, but guess this wasn't helping when in situ. Remade it off just in case.
Anywho, one or all of the above sorted it.
A burnt hand and a million electric shocks is a small price to pay.
Oh, and refitting the airbox. What joy!

Still a bit hesitant when blipping the throttle, but I'll have a think on that.

Really appreciate your help
