Behind the spark advance lever it looks lihe the intake has a leak. it is wet with oil that kinda runs back towards the bleeder intake but hasnt made it there yet. There seems to be no wetness towards the front side of the gasket which is the intake. Motor is a little hard to start have to give good hard squeeze on primer bulb and a shot with primer selonoid. When the motor is at idle is fluctuating rpms between 1200 to around 950. When in gear at low speed motor surges just a bit. when open to just before 1/4 throttle it takes right off and seems good all the way to wot. Its just the low speed surge. I have rebuilt carbs, replaced all fuel lines, replaced exhaust cover gaskets because of water leak, decarbed, replaced spark plugs gapped to .030, and added water separator with extra inline filter, ran compression check- all cylinders were from 120 psi to 123psi, removed vro and put on new non-oil standard mallory pump. Change all bleeder hose and the little plastic tee. I think thats about it.
I have order intake gaskets, leaf plate gaskets, and carb to intake gaskets.
When I remove intake is there anything inside I should be checking while i have it opened up? Next is when putting it back on is there tightening sequence like a car? Or should I snug then start torque in the center bolts and work my way outside crossing back and forth like you would on a car ?
I have the torque poundage from the solec manual for size range of the bolts.
Just wanting to make sure I am going about this right to do it right the first time.
Thanks for your time and patience.
