I'm not getting fuel to the engine which I've narrowed down to one of two possible issues. I've replace some but not all fuel lines, and am seeing fuel getting to the mechanical fuel pump (verified by removing the input hose), and have yet to diagnose if fuel is leaving the fuel pump and getting to the carbs. The other issue I believe exists, is that, as a post-millennial, I need someone with more experience and tools than I have to help me balance my carbs. Any chance another WPTA member nearby (I'm in 15212) would be able to help a guy out this Sunday afternoon or anytime next weekend? Beer and steak are on me. -Jeb Swistock -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
