Won't Start!

[NitroTate]

Ok so just put her all back together and shee won't start Damn it!!

 

Shee ran before the rebuild with the following:

Drag pipes

290 mains

clip on the 3rd position on needle

3 deg advance key

 

NOW:

changed to T5's

didn't change anything in carbs or needles

added adj. timing plate (still had to use degree key) but plate is set at 0 right now.

reed spacers added

 

I've got good spark

Don't know if the timing could be a prob or not?

Doesn't seem to be getting fuel even though I can smell it when kicking

Pulled plugs, not very wet

 

My diagnosis is that it's either not getting fuel or not getting enough, So my question is; if I'm not getting fuel what normally causes the restriction??

 

Thanks for any help guys!

i suggest u pull the choke nobe in and out for a while that should pump some gas into the carbs. then try starting it

[spoin39]

Make sure that choke tube is connected between both carbs.

[NitroTate]

Yep, choke tube is connected, I

[simonsays]

is all the wiriring properly connected.... is ur switch conected to the computer

[NitroTate]

Yeah cause if it weren't, I wouldn't be getting any spark and I'm definitely getting spark.

Damn shee started tonight!!!

 

I did find one of the problems, the damn pro design tether switch I bought is wired backward inside!!! It's not my wiring cause you can wire it both ways and still the same. Have any of you ever run into this, it must be defective.

 

Anyway once I made sure I had a good closed circuit I sprayed some starting fluid in the intake and shee started on the first kick.
