Hi all and Merry Christmas!! I have to use my wifes account because i cant remember my own.
So my TEA20 has been sitting for about 5 months with now use in the weather....( I know, I know).
It has a head problem as i get water in my oil.
Usually she will start no problems if i keep up with the Gasket Sealer in the radiator (I know, I know ).
Today it seems as though i now have a carb problem. i get fuel going in to the carb but was not firing over so i cleaned my points, new spark plugs. Still nothing.
I then unscrewed the drain on the carb and got nothing until i gave it a tap. now i have fuel leaking out. so i have fuel in the carb.
She still wouldnt start so checked my new plugs and they were clean/dry no fuel EXCEPT number 3 which was coffee coloured goo (head dramas).
I poured fuel in through the spark plug holes and gave it ago. The motor gave a cough and splutter.
I also got my GLW to give me a tow to try and roll start it but nothing.
So now Im at a loss as what to do next..??
do i need to pull the carb off and give it a clean?
Any help would be great.
thanks
Cameron
