Tried the easystart in the carbs but it just fires up until it's burnt away, I think a jerry can of the stuff is what I need down the carbs.... anytime over the weekend will suit me if your not doing anything....

Thats what I'm starting to think myself, I know this might sound stupid, but where does the vacuum pipe fit onto the fuel tap is it the spout at the bottom or the spout on the side facing forwards?

It's the spigot on the side. Are you sure the tap vacuum line is connected properly to ther manifold under the right rear carb?

Just nipped out to the garage and silly old me :oops: I was connecting the vacuum pipe to the wrong spout, after a couple of turns she fired up and what a sound real music :grin:. Boy did that one have me going for a while :whistle:
Thank you to everyone that replied and gave their advice and help, it was much appreciated....
