Tango Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 Welcome to TMBF mate. . . . . pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ..... So, when you rebuilt the carb did you set the needle height correctly.....and is the float set correctly too.......sounds like fuel starvation ......maybe blocked main jet too..... Quote
crow95 Posted October 4, 2017 Author Posted October 4, 2017 I put the needle in the slot on the float not sure if that's right though but when I move the float the needle does rise and lower accordingly Quote
