Well, I never siese to defy physics.


Does this make sense to anyone? I took both of the carburetors apart. I am experiencing a dead upper cylinder. The upper carb looked fine inside. I was expecting to find a lot of crap in it because they havent been opened in the 25 years I have owned this motor. Unbelievably, all of the crud was found in the bowl of the cyliner that seems to be firing fine. I would have been happier to see the exact opposite. This is the story of my life. Unexplained, silly, and intermittent B.S. that causes motor problems like this. Hopefully, I wont have any more problems with this motor, but Im not counting on it or convinced. Paul :confused:
