I started with a new set of plugs and have done as you suggest a couple of times. This morning I adjusted the float level on the right side carb (the side that is not firing) thinking that the fuel level in the float bowl was too low for the pilot jet to pick it up and send it into the cylinder. I don't believe it is a rich condition, just the opposite, it seems like there is no fuel in the 'idle circuit' for this cylinder. When I prime the cylinder prior to starting, both cylinders will fire and run until the introduced fuel is spent, then that one cylinder quits running and it runs only on the left (this is evidenced by no exhaust pressure coming out the right side exhaust compared to the left side).
I appreciate the input and any advice anyone can offer as I continue to troubleshoot is welc
