Hey all, been having a strange issue and I think it has to do with either my ignition, fuel lines, or float height or even all 3. I havent been able to tell yet by pulling off the bowl but I think my engine is consuming more fuel than my lines have been able to pull from the tank and it suddenly dies and needs around 10 minutes to start again. My thoughts so far are that its a combo of too small fuel lines/and a weak spark causing poor combustion/fuel economy. The float height might be a problem but I haven't messed with that or opened the bowl in a while for it to suddenly act up like this. It's also been smoking a lot more than usual and extremely hard to start.
Going to replace the stock ignition with a gas bike super charge, too broke for a jag but from my understanding it should still provide a much stronger spark than before an take away my possible weak spark issue. Already modified my woodruff key to put the timing more in line for higher RPM and cleaned the carb out completely. Next stop is finding out the correct float height for a dellorto 14mm sha and adjusting from there. Bought a new plug as well just in case, never hurts to start fresh!
