vavle and controlls it.#2plug has black carbon on it
thanks for any help and any other info on restarting old bike. oh compression is in 120"s
AnswerRicky, the #2 cylinder is getting way too much fuel. I'd guess the float level is too high. When you pull the screw it leans the air fuel mixture and it fires. The air shut off only shuts the fuel off when there's high vacuum when the engine is decellerating.
