    I would check the compression with a decent gauge, I would not trust Harbor Freight

    Down a cylinder DASA 1200. Any guesses?

    Remove your flame arrestors, start the engine and look down the throat of the carbs as you rev it. As Harbor said, it will let you see if both carbs are opening, but it will also show you if both carbs are getting fuel, or if the fuel is atomizing or just dribbling out.

    Weeks Brothers Products

    2014 Krash Predator - REVAMP
