Guy's
not been on here for a long while and to my shame I have neglected my trusty 2200TC (Chatterbox)! she will now not start for love nore money, I've had the carbs off and the exhaust to be able to fit a NOS manifold and the next pipe along. That wasn't the reason I took the carbs off it was just the exhaust came along at the right time.
To me it seemed like fuel, either muck in it or the pump failed, anyway two new pumps later it still wont start, it seems to be getting fuel, and there seems to be a spark but no vroom vroom!
I only got her back together today so I have not rechecked everything yet, but I cleaned out the carbs and checked the jets, then refitted everything, I have a service kit that I might try next, any ideas?
I've been thinking about a spare set of carbs and trying them at least then I'll have a spare set whilst I get the others rebuilt, she has always since I had her tended to throw petrol in the oil, i'm hoping the new fuel pump cures this.
Any advice welcome as i'm fed up with pushing the old girl around
regards
