running on 2 cylinders .. advise please HAPPY DAYS FIXED

[mortzz]

Hello all , my H1E is running on 2 cylinders its the middle pot, the strange thing is all 3 coils are new and it does spark with the plug out ? ive checked that all the correct colours in the wiring loom correspond with the correct pots, it did run on 3 for around 20 miles,, the plugs wet so fuel is getting to it so all in all very strange .. it does run on the 2 pots well and still even kicks up first time , any help guys

Check the carb, make shure everything is where it should be.
Mine started doing the same thing, turned out the main jet came loose and started flooding that cylinder.

Here is a link to the iggy testing for a late model H1

As Shiloh said, move the canter carb to another cylinder to see if the problem follows.

Walms posted good advice, but before you get into that, swap that carb with one of the others and see if the problem moves. The fact that it sparks with the plug out makes me pretty sure shiloh is on the right track.

thanks guys I will get in the garage today as its my day off work.. and let you know

All sorted took the carb off to find the throttle cable had come off the slide so evidently the slide could not move up or down, just took her around the block and feels spot on, whats the base settings for the air screw I used 1.5 turns but feels a lot better on 2 turns ?

[Jim]

You should set the air screws for highest idle, erring slightly on the rich side of the high spot.

Gotta love easy fixes.

+1. Although hard fixes can also be truly satisfying. Thats why its great we have this board, the resource site, jim, mraxl and every member that has been there and done that before...

Shiloh gets credit for the win for this one. "check the carb"
