It will run for a few seconds on a shot of ether, but not otherwise.  Fuel is getting to the carb, it has great spark. I cleaned the jets, which were clean. The bowl was full of fuel when I dropped it. The carb seems fine. 2000 miles on it. Never a problem previously. Suggestions?

Try fresh fuel?

Start from the top of the trouble shooting list:

  • Compression
  • Spark
  • Fuel

You clearly have spark and compression since it runs. So it's probably a fuel issue, try fresh fuel lines like Cynic said. Also we haven't been given a scenario. How long has it sat? Why did it stop running? What made you want to clean the carb?
