The bit the needle drop into. They can go oval which means you can chase the mixture all over the place and still it goes out of tune.pastures16 wrote:emulsion tubes
For road though the 3en's CV's should be fine

Re: my 2tk wont rev up
Well its the same problem with the other carbs on, it just wont run & rev, it tries sometimes to run but thats it.
Boris I swapped the cdi over from a 3en2 as the 3en1 cdi has blocks of 6 & 8 connectors, the 3en 2 has the same 4 & 6 but also has extra wires coming off as well. The cdi I plugged in doesnt give a spark so it really has to be another off a 2tk I think
.
Thing is the original cdi gives a spark so I,ve no idea why it the bike wont run, super compression, spark & fuel so I cant work it out!
I,ll probably end up selling it for spares if I cant sort it shortly.

if you've got sparks, air and fuel then the timing might be out? Are the coils talking to the right plugs mate?
pour a gallon of fuel on it and flick a cigar......that'll get it going.
