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.

Yup just ran out to the shed and there is just one in each & they are both there.

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

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.
