New to me motor did not come running. Compression is okay but had no spark on #5 cylinder. New switchbox and it has spark on all 6 cylinders. Rebuilt the carbs with new gaskets and seals and all New lined and tank, New plugs.
Motor would not start with idle timing set to 4 atdc. Only will idle and start at 6 btdc. When it runs if I pull the 5th there's no change in rpm so its not getting fuel/air. I put my hand infront of bottom carb and it feels like less vacuum then the others. So looking at the diagram it can really only be leaking from that transfer port gasket or the reeds stuck closed?
I'm not super familiar with these motors but by looking at the parts diagrams the reeds are inside the case and it has 3 of them. So if 1 set if reeds feeds #5/6 cylinder, why is #6 cylinder getting fuel/air. Or is the transfer port the issue. Any help would be appreciated
