Really bad cold starting. Ign or fuel?
Sesman:
Hallelujah. Glad it worked out. I genuinely didn’t know there was a right and wrong way round for the carb rubbers. Is this just a 400/4 thing?

On the original 400f rubbers they are numbered, 1&4 and 2&3 so they get fitted in the correct position.

So it’s just a 400/4 thing?

Gareth, the adaptors were in the right positions, but one was mounted 180 degrees out! Someone must have had one heck of a time and really persevered to force the complete carb set back in initially.......! I've found a few "bodges" as I've been working my way through the bike, at least I now know it's safe to go out on (when it warms up a bit, lol).
Just ventured back out to the workshop - fully cold, started first prod of the button with 3/4 choke. Happy days!
