We pulled over for a bit but kept movin. When we got a little further DCS came on and we we're only running on 2 cylinders. We change a plug and the plug stays dry like no fuel. Could this be an iced up carb or what? I need info quick cause we are in Bear Lodge now.
 

turn the carb heat on, see if it comes out of it. Don't run it too long with noe fuel in that cylinder. Maxdlx
 
I'd check that carb if you're sure it's getting no fuel, no fuel means no oil. See if that plastic slosh device is loose on the nozzle, when those come loose they can slide up the nozzle extension and hold the float up as well as drop down and cut fuel off to the main but it would still idle then. Those are an optional part at that point.
 
Well did a compression test this mornin and got nothing whatsoever. So we have to tear the motor apart.
