Hi Folks,
Good news, thanks to Tom 203 re the petcock going bad and fouling #2 cyl, it was indeed the problem.
There was some smoke when started, but it cleared up, hopefully all the raw gas did not do too much damage...
I had taken the tank off to drain the gas and check the strainer and now find that I have no fuel gauge (or reserve until the rebuild kit arrives).
There is approx 8 volts at the leads and connections are good, when ignition is turned on you can just see the gauge move backwards a tad... I'm guessing that something did not like being upside down, any thoughts??
Cheers
