Ok, you'll probably laugh at me, and I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I'm going to ask anyway. You know, when I was a kid, I was a real "Macgyver" on small engines, but never worked on 2 cycle motorcycle engines. I finally got spark back on my new 1974 Suzuki RV90, so it's sparking again, but still won't actually start just yet. I also haven't replaced the old gas either. I want to at least fire it if possible before I get too deep into it.
Here's the question:
On a Mikuni carb (VM17) when you turn the accelerator, isn't the slide inside SUPPOSED to go up and down as you give it gas, or let off gas? Because it doesn't move at all. The cable up at the accelerator feels wonky, and maybe the ball is broken off inside. I have to work tonight, so don't have time to do more to it.
Thanks for the help, and for not laughing too hard! :drinkup:
