Post by: roland on May 06, 2007, 08:44:43 PM

hello to everyone.....

my right cylinder does not work when idling (1400 rpm) but will
start to work when i rev it to around 2000 plus rpm..... why?

has anyone encounter this sort of problem?

thanks,

roland

Idle jet or passage has some crap in it?  Maybe idle mixture screw is screwed all the way in?

No prob, I hope it's something simple like that.  The simple problems are usually the ones that give me the most trouble as I am always looking for some exotic strange fault!  I often need to be reminded to check the simple stuff...
