Ok, that sounds more like a stuck float valve on the front carb.
Can a float valve stick closed? Usually I have them stick open and flood
the Carb. At first I thought the Six was not getting fuel since the throats
of
the carbs were dry, neither were flooding. Gas is present from the pump at
the carbs. Ran a little better with the choke out. I did a compression test:
1--170 2--160 3--155 4--155 5--165 6--175
Seems a little high and all over the place but at least they are not low. I
parked the 250 after VTR because I was getting 120's across the board. The
fleet of healthy TR's is getting thinned out here. Yikes!
Thanks,
Darrell
