[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 497238, member: 240"] If you changed the fuel line recently then its also possible there is a small piece of rubber partially blocking the needle valve in the float chamber. To check this you need to take the top off the carb, remove the needle vave and also flush a little petrol through to ensure there's no remaining debris in the pipes. Since this is more of a faff I suggest you check the other stuff first though. A quick way to see if the lines, filters and pump are ok is to disconnect the coil, take the fuel pipe off the carb and put the end in a jar, get somebody to briefly turn the engine over. The pump should give healthy squirts of fuel. Don't forget to re connect the coil afterwards - guess why I say that :lol: [/QUOTE]
