Re: [T3] How to get the spark


    I replaced the plugs and now all four cylinders are firing.  The old ones
were black (dry, not wet).  The right bank was twice as crusty, and that was the
side that wasn't firing fully.  Thanks all for the help with this one
    The root cause is still unresolved.  Possibly the dripping accelerator
injector tube (the other side squirts nicely).  During the changing of the plugs
I bumped the throttle linkage quite a bit.  This cause a lot of gas to come
dripping out from under the accelerator pump.  I think it must be coming from
the butterfly pivot, but maybe from the pump itself.  The "good" left carb
leaked the same amount, so I'm thinking rebush time.
