parrot Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 You need to give detailed info on the fuel system I suspect. Quote
altezzaclub Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 Carbs or injected?? Only carbs flood as far as I know- but you will get a raw fuel smell from an injected carb if the plugs aren't firing. From personal experience I can tell you that you get a raw fuel/flooding smell from low compression too! If there is not enough compression it can't ignite the fuel. Go check that you have spark at the spark plugs then tell us exactly what you have on the motor and just how well it was running when it went. Quote
