It's Funny David, I should Take note of what I say !,
My Ex L/ning rep' Can be a beast to start after a short stop at the coast,
It gets cold very quick !, That half warm half cold has been strange, For a long time,
Thought I was just getting Old and Weak !, Hate that thought !,
And for years , If I run it rich , It wets the plugs, On all my Bikes !, After about 10 miles,
But a 1/4 of a turn in on the pilot jet, On the rear carb,
Made such a difference,
On my Mk2 Amals, BUT it doesn't tick over as smooth, Begger !,
As you know the lower the rev's, The better it is for getting in gear etc,
I still have it in Race trim,
Also if it doesn't start, Just half a choke on the REAR carb', Seems to be what it likes,
Hard to do with Mk2 s, But is possible.
From Cold , Both chokes on , But only for a second, Maybe leave the rear one on longer !.
This new petrol doesn't help ?,
With my old T.T. Carbs, " A bit rich ", It was a super starter,
Still Learning after all these years .
Cheers Bill.
