Thanks again Phil, Yea I did try the misting in that I was spraying fuel into the top of the carb, and yea I had it slip a tooth at Mallory.
Ok its now at a point where its beyond me to continue as I dont have a compression gauge or how to use one.

I'll have to call my mechanic( Skids ) after Snett.

Thanks for your help Phil.

See you at Pembry hopefully

Craig

Craig we also disturbed the inlet manifold at Mallory when getting ready to take the cylinder head off, before I noticed the timing was a tooth out, so it could have an air leak, if so it would effect the fueling.

In the mean time I had better did out my compression checker (normally use a leak down check these days) I could pop over late tomorrow afternoon / early tomorrow evening with it if thats any help

Hmmm Thx Dave.. I'm pretty sure I remember seeing one as we took it out to reseal it with liquid gaskit. But I'll sure go check that.

There is one each side of each manifold I think Craig.

Ghosty---- you still hovering in here.
Kev did a compression test tonight and there is nothing wrong with that, if anything the fron pot is better.
Kev had the carb in a thousand peices and that all looks ok.
You can see the front pot spark plug is a little wet so fuel getting in, not igniting right ? As said before it will run on this one pot if you give it some revs but not smooth but no poping or anything.
What would you ( anyone )check next

thx


Craig

when you swapped the coils, did you try swapping the plug leads too ? (that assumes the will fit)

I had the same symptoms on my 998 when the front plug lead went bad.
