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

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.
