Got a miss

(1/3) > >>

free2race:
I've done everything I know. It seems that either the motor or the carb has developed a slight backfire.  I checked the ground wire on the front of the motor, It's good. I cleaned the carb out again,changed the jets,changed the plugs and still the same thing. Anybody got something to throw at this one?

justfreaky:
Have you checked your valve lash?

Not yet plan on doing a complete check tonite. I wish this thing ran a flathead.

justfreaky:
I got thinking (I know, Dangerous!  :-\); Make sure you don't have a weak valve spring.
Don't know if you can access the timing, but might want to check that too if you can.

I think I'm going to swap motors this evening. Bad thing about this is this motor has one race on it. Got a really BIG boat anchor.
