Tom: I would put a hose bib on an old can and plum it into the carb. Hold it up higher than the carb and give it a try. If it does not run; you got fuel pump or hose delivery problems. If it does not run; you still have something clogged up in the carb. It's real easy to miss something in those carbs. |

IM WORRIED ABOUT THAT RIGHT SIDE, MOSTLY THESE T-20'S WARE ABOUT THE SAME ON EACH SIDE AND IF ONE SIDE WORKS FINE THERE HAS TO BE SOMTHING WRONG BIG TIME, I DON'T BELEAVE ITS SIMPLY AN ADJUSTMENT MAYBE YOU LOST YOUR LINEING ON THE RIGHT SIDE, OR A SHIFT COLLER, HOWEVER WITH THE SHIFT COLLER YOU WOULD LIKLY HAVE PARTILE USE OF THE RIGHT SIDE, I THINK YOU NEED TO PULL OUT THAT TRANY DON'T ADJUST IT TILL YOU HAVE HAD THE GUTS LOOKED AT, CAUSE YOU CAN ADJUST A BARE BAND TILL IT CAN STOP A DRUM BUT IT WILL QUICLY DESTROY YOUR DRUMS!THERS NO WAY AROUND IT, YOU MUST DO THE AUTOPSY BEFORE YOU CAN PROCIDE WITH ADJUSTMENTS! |
