We already spent tonnes of time troubleshooting your previous non-stock harness. Let's keep this one pristine and un-modified.

Try swapping plugs first, that way you don't have to collect way more additional data. If cold-cylinder moves to #1, you know plug's at fault. More concrete data than you have now.

Remember that measurements are 100% proof, takes precedence over anything else. That's how Greeks were able to prove a round Earth and Galileo a solar-system rotating around sun with collected data. Swapping perfectly-working parts with brand-new perfectly-working parts changes nothing and symptoms persist. It was measurements that found your faulty-harness last time after tonnes of time wasted swapping parts.


Looks like you've got fueling issue with #2 getting way, way too much petrol. Could be non-sealing float-valve increasing height. Drain both float-bowls into different containers and compare their volumes.

BTW - you're sure that carbs are fully OEM bone-stock? All factory jet sizes and needles? Both slide diaphragms good and they do same >pffft< and speed when manually raised and let go?

these carbs were sent twice to gordon. they are factory new. he has gone thru them twice over. i will not go into the carbs again!
