Cheers Malcolm,
I have stripped the carb & found that the secondary Diaphgram is split. I'm hoping that renewing this will cure the problem.
Following on from this, is it worthwhile modifying the floats to centre hung type or fitting a 50cc accelerator pump? I understand the latter requires raising the carb by 1" to clear the pump unit?
All said, would I be better off fitting a Street Avenger or going the 750cfm route?
So many questions!!!
Thanks for the suggestion to lend me your carb Malc, this is the 2nd offer I have had. Mac Kerr kindly offered the same.
Thanks to all.
