Guys,
I dropped my fuel tank and had it cleaned, blew out the lines with a compressor and changed the fuel pump. Starts and runs for a few moments but then starts sputtering and dies. Trying to restart, I have to grind on it for a good while but it will eventually restart. I removed the little check valve (?) between the fuel pump and the carb because it was hard to blow through and I thought it might be part of the original problem. Did I screw up?
I'm gona pop the top on the carb and see if the float bowl is clean. I cleaned it BEFORE I dropped the fuel tank and was probably out of sequence on that one. Sigh, does it ever end?
