Getting over 7 miles out of my G12CSR
Posted: Tue May 01, 2001 7:26 pm
Just rebuilt my CSR and fitted auto advance sprocket on freshly reconditioned magneto. With a new pair of 1st oversize pistons in rebored barrels, everything seemed to be going swimmingly.
Started first kick after 9 years off the road! But I suppose they all say that. In fact its true.
One small problem. Goes like a train for almost exactly 7 miles and then the left hand pot starts to cut out. Runs on right for a while but when stalled is completely impossible to restart. Left hand pipe is just yellowed - right seems to be slightly cooler or maybe just freer flowing.
Checked and rechecked the timing. Checked and rechecked valve clearances. Checked and rechecked carb settings. Oil flow is fine
Any idea about my Gremlin?
