Hello,
I will tell you the complete story. I have a 1973 shovelhead and it have a Mikuni carburetor. Had a fire once, so didn't trust the carburetor (although it ran great) and tried since 2 weeks a S&S super B. After some tuning the performance was great compared to the Mikuni, but starting was a problem.
Meanwhile I have new wiring installed via this image:
The S&S still gave starting problems so I switched back to the Mikuni. And now I still have problems, with installed the Mikuni again, it was 1 kick and the engine want to run.. But without power and it fell out after a few seconds. I have a video:
As seen in the video I first tried to start using brake cleaner.
I switched back to the old wiring, and the problems remains.
I have also a video how it run before the problems, this is with the Mikuni and old wiring:
Tried another plugs (plugs are black) but no difference.
Has anyone an idea what I should check?
