Before I do anything else I checked the gas cap and fuel line. Blew compressed air through all the vent holes in the cap and poked some wire in there to clean it out for good measure. Also cut an inch off the fuel line to “flatten” out the flow from the petcock to the diaphragm assembly on the carbs, as I saw there was a noticeable incline in the line as it left the tank.
After reinstalling everything there was noticeably better fuel flow through the clear inline fuel filter. A bit more finagling and I think I can improve it a little more. Got our first snow of the approaching winter last night so that’s put the kibosh on taking it out for a ride, but we’re in for a warm spell (up to 18C next Monday with any luck) so there’s still time.
