Bob

The compression readings are low. Did you hold the throttle wide open when
you checked it?

 Mick,
This cylinder measures 90 lbs and the port side measures 85 lbs.
Spark plug lights up good when outside of cylinder.
Just cleaned and rebuilt carbs, (VHB29) i.e. put in new gaskets. Jets were
good. I have #122 for main jet, where slide needle goes into, #80 jet for
the atomizer and #45 for the pilot jet (the one next to the main jet). Both
slide needles set to middle position and both slides have big end oriented
toward engine. Both slides have enough cable slack to allow slide to go to
bottom of carbs. I plan to replace the coil and condenser just because I
have nothing left to do. BOb
