Carbs are in!!

Post by Chris Cochran »

Well, I got them in and everything is temporarily hooked up enough to run. It hasn't been synchronized yet.

The engine will turn over nicely but it doesn't want to catch and start running. I'm hoping that it's an adjustment issue somewhere. I turned the idle knob a few turns and it at least grabs for a few seconds. Fuel is getting to the carbs.

Simple things first. Did you hook the choke up and adjust it correctly?
