Nope, I was wrong. Problem is back. Its definitely the carbie. :) The carbie died today.

 

I had the same problem, just swapped over carbs from a 3K-H (when my old 25 had the 3K). wouldnt start by cranking, only way to start i was push start it and keep the revs above 2,000 or so rpm. I think it was the idle circuit. just garb a carb, clena it up and see how u go

I'm going to have it rebuilt.

I'm going to have it rebuilt.

 

 

Is the fault there just in hot weather? I had a ke30 doing the same turned out to be a weak inlet valve spring in the fuel pump.

my 4k ke70 had same problem, a month later block filled with coolant, my head gasket was slowly going, have you done a compression test?

 

get ya carby rebuilt would be the go, you can do it yourself and it will cost you not lots, i got my stock carby rebuilt and it cost $300! bastards, anyway now I'm getting rid of that one for a nikki carby.

 

Hope it helps man

 

o and check for bubbles in your radiator, if their is some you got blown head gasket.
