[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 245860, member: 240"] If the gasket under the carb or between the head and manifold leaks its not always easy to see though it can sometimes be detected by spaying wd40 on the joins to see if the engine speed changes or by listening with a stethoscope. (or a bit of tube in your ear :lol:) Your right - swapping the carbs left to right will give you a definite answer as to whether the problem is in the carbs or not. (but its a lot of hassle, rather delicate and I would not recommend doing this unless you have exhausted all other possibilities) Please let me know what you find. ps. I'm not familiar with heads that use undersize sparkplugs - what heads are they? [/QUOTE]
