There is a guy in my area that rebuilds the older ones and does a great job but lately he’s been sitting on them for a long time. Everybody is moving to the 4 stroke. Sad

Well I it’s time to take a peek at the reeds. A some first test would be to put a pice a of paper in front of the carb while it’s running and see if it spiting fuel back at ya.

When you did the carb do you recall seeing the nozzle gasket? If so did it go back in? If unsure you will see it on a parts page. Have seen a few of these over the years that people leave out thinking they aren’t important.

Lucky day for Bambi

If were me I would just fill the holes with an epoxy filler and drill and tap and use machine screws and lock tight. Done

I bought some HolyGrail Ale once because of the name. It was some nasty stuff. I couldn’t even drink it.

Yeah I forgot you mentioned it was the bottom cylinder that was wet. Racer mentioned reeds and I guess if there was a broken or bent reed and there was a bad diaphragm dumping extra fuel in the top it could possibly be getting sucked into the lower cylinder. I have never seen that but it sound...
