NC30 fuel problem

[montsta56]

Hey People,
I just put my Nc30 Project back together after A bit of a restoration. An I've Seem to have a FUEL PROBLEM The BIke Started fine but then seemed to run out of gas. There's fuel in the tank, I checked the Fuel filter inside the tank an it's clean enough. So I put some Fuel straight into the fuel line an also into the throat of the carb's an she fired up an sounded sweet,. So i put the tank back on an started it again It ran for a bit put soon sounded as though it ran out of fuel. I've kind of checked the fuel tap by putting gas in it an seeing if fuel came out of the Tap An fuck all seemed to be coming out just a few drips??? Should i Assume the fuel Tap's Fucked
Cheers in Advance

make sure you have put the vacuum feed on...there should be a hose from the intake minfold to the fuel tap...the engine sucks on the pipe...letting fuel flow through the tap.....

without this suction...your not going to get any fuel.

Or do this fuel tap mod and make it gravity fed... stops fuel starvation at constant high rpm...

yeah until your floats get stuck or the needle get grit in it....and then it pisses fuel out all night long in your garage....out of the overflows....

Noice!
Shame though that you didn't choose black or silver for the wheels.:spudwhat:
Perhaps when they get all scratched and muntered you could strip'n'polish 'em.

Yeah good call, I've just got a spare set of wheels be cleaned up as we speak to be repainted. I'm still deciding weather to flick them in Black Or Red??? I'm thinkind red may give it a similar look to Jared Love's ducati He raced this year.....Thoughts????
