Pilot jets blocked. They are tiny.....

+1 for the pilot jet. Also check the float level - sorry I no longer have a service manual to tell you the correct setting.Originally Posted by electrogeek

I guess that isn't the sort of check I can do with the carb on the bike... oh well... i guess for now i will live with a push start from the lights till i get to restoring it, however if anyone out there has a service manual that would be really really fantastic

Its a simple job to whip the carb off and give it a clean up. Also check the air filter.

+3 for pilot jet, but as an aside from faded memory there is a screw sticking up from the side cover that adjusts idle, but take the cover off & the rubber bung in the casing to the side of the carb & poke a screwdriver through which will release the carb.
Any time sitting with crap old petrol will cause a block. Running it like this will cause a lean condition which is not a good thing. Cleaning it is easy, the pilot jet is the small one up the tube. Don't poke wire through it though, will ovalise it.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Cool, I'll do that on the weekend, also PirateJafa I am keen on the A80, but it seams that I havn't been here long enough to tell you that in a PM, so if you could send me your cell phone number (In a PM) I'll give you a bell
Cheers All and thanks for the tips
