Hi Lyn, never thought of an intermittent pilot jet fault, it's certainly worth checking.LynP wrote: ↑Sat Oct 21, 2023 10:47 pm I had a similar problem on a G3LS with monobloc carb. After a engine rebuild and with a cleaned and rebuilt carb, I took the bike for its first run. After about 2 miles it cut out. This happened on each of 3 further runs at about the same distance and each time it started easily after a couple of minutes. It turned out there was very small bit of something that was getting sucked up into the pilot jet and then it somehow cleared and the bike ran again, only for the bit to be sucked up again. Did another carb clean all fine after. Just a thought, LynP
