Rebuilt the engine from the bottom up.
New standard big end shells, rebored to +20, new pistons and rings, tri spark, new valves and springs. New premier carbs.
It starts and runs well with full choke, the moment I take the choke off it dies. It does not want to respond to the throttle.
Needle is set on the middle slot and assume I should go to the next slot down the needle to richen the mixture. The plugs are light brown with a cream coloured end, exhaust pipes look hot blueing the chrome, only static timed it, not fitted the air filter yet for obvious reasons, I know this will richen the mixture.
