Stuck again lol. Got standard 1275 and complete swooped to a 998 apart from eletrics and carb. The problem i'm having is i just can't start it. It's almost there it's firing but somethings not quiet right just wondered if anyone had any ideas. I have fuel at the plugs and a good spark and its timed right whats the next port of call??

Hi, Check for air leaks on the inlet manifold, carb spacer etc. Have you attached an earth strap?

i've swoped to different carbs over and other not quiet working. inlets off my 1275 does that make any diffence with it being a 998 set up.

Plug leads the correct way? Have you had the dizzy drive out? |

Gotta be either a very weak or very rich mixture? If it was running and all you changed is the carb the fault must be there. |
