finishing off my MCA with its seats etc but its always run very well, all i did when i first got it was service it with plugs, points, condenser, oil change etc
anyway the other day i fired it up to move it and when ticking over its fine but it refuses to rev, if you try to rev the engine it will just try to die
ive tried all the basics, tried swapping the condenser, checked the points, swapped the plugs for the old ones but its still exactly the same, so i can only think its the carb
seems very strange as it was fine the day before when i started it up
can anyone point me in the direction for a service kit for the carb? or have any ideas what it maybe
its a aircooled 650 btw
-
Loose carb or air leak under carb maybe or blocked main jet .
-
cleaned the carb out with some carb cleaner and a set new of gaskets and.....
....happy days running well again, fitted a new fuel filter now so hopefully (fingers crossed) it won't happen again
