70 up and running!

[MisterFurious]

Well, I finally got the 70 running decently. The main jet was plugged; still doesn't run perfectly, but well enough for the boys to rip around the yard and proclaim it the greatest machine on earth! Question, should the header pipe be glowing red, or is my mixture off?

[SYKO]

wow!!!! red!!!!! super lean!!!!! bad things ahead!!!!!! fix imediatly!!!!

[MisterFurious]

I cleaned the jet out with a cutting torch cleaner after soaking it in carb cleaner; just get a bigger jet?

[TrikeKid]

Yeah, get a few of the next sizes up and see what works best.

[MisterFurious]

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the help!

i would look at timing FIRST......... WORN POINTS WILL RETARD THE TIMING BAD

[MisterFurious]

Yeah, I thought about that. It backfires quite a bit; figured the timing may be a little off.
