I have a 1949 series C Rapide, with standard carbs and a Sintilla Mag.
I will except that the 276 carbs are worn but it is difficult to start, if I clean the plugs ( which are sooty, not oily ) it will start easily, after that much leaping up and down is needed.
It is currently fitted with B7Es plugs are these the correct ones for the bike and/or could I go to a hotter plug and eliminate the sooting.
