Re: Re: not running properly ?

Hi the re-conditioned one has 7 stamped on the flange and the correct jets, I hope to get at it on Thursday and seal the flange gasket with a gasket sealant and see if this sorts it out(after I have checked that the flange face is flat, as suggested). Will let you know how it goes,unfortunitly the day job gets in the way at times.

Re: Re: Re: not running properly ?

Problem solved, flatened flange and sealed with sealant, still only on half choke and fluctuating revs. Took the old bowl off and fitted to re-con carb, engine ran correctly, changed over jets from new bowl to old and refitted, everything running correctly, must have been a fault in the re-con bowl. I hope to get out for a run on Sat. Once again thanks for all your help!!!
