yeah, it was running before, although it wouldn't idle. is there something I need to do to get the bowl full of gas after a cleaning, it was my first time to do that on a bike. I don't think the floats are stuck, you can hear them flopping when you shake it up and down.I assume it has spark, it did before....even charged the battery. what did you mean by make the jets bigger, I didn't go diggin at them with a paper clip or anything, I just shot thru them with the carb cleaner til a good stream was going thru each jet and passage. got me stumped for sure.
thanx for the responses, keep em comin!
