Starting issues

<< < (2/3) > >>

Bryanj:
If the carbs have been set up with the tickover either fully closed OR too far open it will be a bitch to start

tosh:
Thanks for the advice suggestions guys, I will try/check these and post results up here. Fingers crossed

tosh:
Well finally found the time to try the advice given, mixture adjustments and filter restrictions had no effect but it does fires up on easy start so I'm guessing it's a carb problem, so back to the kitchen table they go, any thoughts?

Bryanj:
If it fires on easy how old is the petrol you are using, anything over 7 days on those extra lean carbs and starting is a beatch

tosh:
Yea fuel isn't that fresh so went and got some fresh this morning, drained tank and refuelled, put carbs back on "again" after checking mains and pilots clear ect and it still won't go, gonna try putting the 92 mains back in just in case the 120's are just to bigger step up, beginig to run out of ideas now .....frustrating because I know it runs
