Mains are 118, starters are 50, slides 40 I think. I'll have a check when I get home on Weds what the rest are (I used to know all this stuff off pat)! Airbox and filters are standard.

45-48 pilots should be about right... any bigger and the whole thing gets really wooly.

Finally tried it after cleaning out the carb- no change. Next I'll try swapping the carbs...

Beginning to think possibly an ignition fault; it'd be easier to swap the transducers over first I suppose.

I'm starting to think the unthinkable now.

No, I'm not selling it but I am considering paying somebody to get in back on the road.

I wouldn't even have considered this drastic step a few years ago, but as I have no time, and have to empty my garage for a few months so we can extend our house, it could be expedient...
