There's life in the old beast yet!!! was created by KB02
Well, after a little bit of work, and some good help from the fine people on these boards, I actually heard the bike running on all four cylinders last night!!!
...granted, it was brief... and lead me to realize that I'm not out of the woods just yet with it, BUT, SHE'S GOT A PULSE!!!
Cylinders 2 and 3 are running fine! #1 took a little while to get going, but it eventually popped off. #4 is my biggest concern. If I held my hand over the (open) end of the carb for a second, the cyclender would pop when I removed my hand then propmly die away again. Idle jet still blocked? After my second attemp to get it cleaned out? It just doesn't seem to be drawing gas in like it should. I'll now more soon. It was late last night and dinner was ready so I put it to bed with the knowledge that it will be a runner.
If it's not the slow jet what else should I look for? With gas in the cylinder it pops off without a problem.
