You mean Plug Leads ?


Spark plug leads make sure that you have them on the correct plug * your manual wil help you with that possibly)


as for carb cleaner i is good stuff but some cheaper varieties are a bit :roll: but if you strip the carb down and use it and leave it to soak a bit generally works best ... Did you reset the carb tuning to as it was beforw you stripped it


Did the bike run before >?
