Try adding UNLIT propane into the mouth of the carb off idle. That is the way we do it for everything from bike to car engines, and, it is clean. The carb is a carb, same as any carb, for every fuel circuit, there should be some sort of air corrector orifice in the inlet of the carb.


You nailed it Dave, I didn't have the air bleed/corrector open. The bike runs fine now.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the good words. It's pretty fun getting to work on some of these uncommon bikes.
