diggerjames 543 #13 Posted August 30, 2014 Well this morning I went to the workshop to have a tinker with the new addition the C141 I noticed the tank had been disconnected so obviously it wasn't getting any fuel so Put a temporary tank on to see what happened , I spun the key and nothing wasn't even attempting to start so o I whipped the plug out it was a bit coked up so I cleaned that and checked for a spark and it had a good healthy blue spark! So I dropped a bit of fuel down the plug and it fired , but would not run so I then removed the carb. And stripped it it was full of gunk and rust so I cleaned that out and reassembled it , spun the key and away she went , 1 ranger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
