    what about vacuum? runs for 5 mins as vacuum gradually builds then stops? fuel starvation? open the gas tank filler try again...blocked vent? Draining the bowl will release vacuum but fuel will still be there, vacuum with oppose the vacuum developed in the manifold. Also check the carb vent is clear.

  13. Greetings szr, good luck with the sale and the search for something else.
  14. Airhead replied to DirtyDT's post in a topic in General
    Great news mate.
  15. if you dont have a spark, try putting the front plug in the back and check again, at least you know the front one is a good one. That should eliminate a duff plug fault. place jump starter leads round the threads and connect them to a good earth when checking, or wrap some bare wire around them also securely grounded.
  16. sounds like your back cylinder isnt firing at all, under no circumstances should you be riding it like that, I cant believe you are riding it 13 miles. You should remove the spark plug from the back cyl and check for sparks, it seems there is some fuel getting there, it will go through to the exhaust, thats what you can smell. Who knows how much fuel you have in the exhaust after that amount of miles? just make sure nobody stands behind it for a while
  17. Dont use paint stripper on your plastics Liam!! Just rub them down and use flexible primer on them before the top coat.

  24. Yes it could have a blockage to the fuel feed in the rear cylinder, either at the carb or the pump (depending on the plumbing arrangement)
