Duh, should have read your original message. :) Sounds like the right side
is running at high idle. When pulling either plug wire, the engine should
run for about 3-5 revolutions before dying. I think your left side will be
fine, might want to check the right side.

Paul,
When I pull just the right side plug wire, the engine dies in about 3
revolutions. And I can hear "spitting" in the carb (seems to come from the
left side) as well when starting out when cold.
Good idea; I'll drop the left float bowl and have a look inside.

PS - been meaning to adjust the front brakes but just haven't found the
time. I need a month of weekends to get all my projects finished.

Bruce,
What happens when you just pull the right side? It does sound like it's time
to balance them. Might want to check the left carb for blockages.

My Eldo hasn't been running as well as before and I suspected one of the
plugs wasn't do its job. I pulled the left side plug wire off and the
engine continued to run with a slight drop in rpms (by audio only); slight
increase when wire was re-attached. Pulled the right side plug wire and in
about 3 revolutions, the engine died.
Time to balance the carbs ??
