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.

For road though the 3en's CV's should be fine

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 :down: .

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.
