pulled thecarbs off today lots of red like gel in the bowls, due to painting of the tank i think anyway cleaned all bowls and floats everything looks ok, went for a run , drives well strong , took plugs out greyish bown , not too bad thinking a little lean,will try 145 mains and 45 pilots as i am out 3 1/2 turns and still popping , my filters are 70 mill pods , more or less fully open so with muck in the fuel system and running lean, i think this caused the cutting out at 3 quarter throttle in 3rd,thats clear now so ithink bigger jets are requireed thanks everyone for advice kevin



That's a good bit of information to tuck away. I was a little stumped. I was starting to believe it was a stuck float, but I don't see any reason for a float to stick if it had previously been working well, unless something else has changed. In your case the change was the gunk from the tank. I'm glad you found the problem. Let us know about how the jet changes work out.
