i have a feeling its lean because its not getting gas. the carb bowls are full but does that mean it should be getting gas?


Nope - - - just indicates gas is there and available to get, not that it being got.:P

Imo, indicates that something's still wrong in the carb pilot circuits.

Good Luck! :)

I don't know about the 440s but the900s and 1000s have one coil for 1 & 4 and the other for 2 & 3.
#1 cyl is on the left side. Sounds like It's firing into an open intake valve and/or exhaust valve.
