Won't start

[Mr Bean]

1970 early bay been stood since Jan (was running good up to then) now won't start checked points plugs and timing, took carb off and cleaned diaphragm all ok, chucked some fuel down and run ok for a good five minutes so was definitely drawing fuel stopped it and refused to start again. Any ideas please

Is there fuel coming from the fuel pump?
Disconnect the line from the carb and place it into a bottle - get someone to turn the bus over and check fuel is pumped

 

[Mr Bean]

Hi stuf yes fuel up to carb and used a mirror to see down carb pull accelerator and fuel squirts

Are you getting a spark on your plugs, loose connection on coil?

 

[Mr Bean]

Hi sub yes good spark have had it running twice with fuel down carb so going to drain old fuel out of tank and put fresh in. Will also swop accelerator diaphragm if I can find anybody that does them
