[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 518800, member: 240"] Try this. Take the top off the carb, remove and clean the needle valve. Before replacing the needle valve, with the coil disconnected, get someone to turn the engine over while you hold a container under the carb top to collect the fuel. This will do two things. It will allow you to see if the fuel pump is delivering fuel nicely and it will also flush out any bits trapped in the pipe that may be causing the needle valve to block intermittently. If there was any dirt in the fuel chamber then remove and clean out the idle jet. It's normally the first one to block. [/QUOTE]
