Hi all,
I had 2 91 exciter 2's. The one ran perfect last year besides a known leaky carb (so i always shut the gas off after every ride)
I stripped both sleds down, swapped the running motor, carbs (after a bath), fuel pump over to the new chassis.
The sled used to start 2nd pull with choke only, no throttle. Now It fires on the initial pull but wont fire up. There is spark (though it seems weak, if that possible I was always taught its either spark or no spark). The plugs are getting fuel.
I also notice blowback on the exhaust, which makes me think the crankcase got flooded with gas. I took the plugs out and carbs off and pulled it 20 or so times and left it open over night.
Came back to it this morning put it all together and still the same thing, fire once each pull but wont run.
Any suggestions where to start?
