try removing the float bowl, put the carb onto the fuel line, something under it to catch fuel, with both vac holes blocked off turn it to prime.

you should get a constant  dribble that stops when you lift the float up and the valve stops the flow.

ok i drained the oil... reeks of oil

I dont want a new petcock!!

darnit... grrrr... ok.. fine... I hope you're right....

On a silly sie note, who can take a picture of the nuts on the bottom of the bike next to thr oil drain... theres 2 nuts on the right hand side I dunno if they're on right... when I was looking at them they looked 1/8th off the engine

Hope you know I had to get off my butt for this... ...
I'm only doing it 'cause you said you'll buy a petcock... ...
...it's really hard to hold the bike in the air with one hand and take a picture with the other... ...

other side, think he's talking about the oil pressure ports

Ok, so I spoke to Michael yesterday (Vers) for a good... I'd say 4-5hrs...  I have ordered a cam tensioner from him, new O ring for the speedo cable (no more leakage), ordered new raptop petcock (I'm still not convinced, but 30$ to prove me wrong is not a big deal), drained all my petrol from tank (looked clean, no debri, tank looks nice and clean inside), I have made new tubes for everything and have nice hose clamps holding everything down.

if time permits today, I'll check out the valves today and see if I can get the exhaust welded on (the white putty sh!t is all gone)

Wonder what's next

Vers I got the cam tensioner, I'll replace it in a bit, very nice shipping mate.

I will test the carb today, I took a break for holiday, so I havn't checked it yet... I'll let you know the result.
