cold start problem

[manxr65]

i dont know i been trying again tonight floats seem ok , im putting a full turn on mixture screw and about half aturn on throotle screws.
you cant get carbs that wrong , both plugs are wet even around the thread ,even with a new battery it just turn over a not even trying to fire which now makes me think it could be spark plugs but even they are sparking when pulled out.
might try new plug tomorrow
any idea on what to test for
any ideas would be a great help

Remind us again, Manx. What year is your R65? Points or electronic?

Don't forget - aftermarket electronic ignition has been known to fail. Not always as "fit-and-forget" as the magazines would have us believe!

My thoughts, too. Carb issues would not prevent the sparklers from sparkin'.
