Hi folks
Hope you're all having a merry crimbo.
I know this topic has prob been covered before but need wisdom.
tried to start project #2 today, been neglecting the NC's due to workload.
It ran ages ago but been standing since.
It had a service including new plugs at the time.
But now the bugger won't start. I checked plugs, all getting spark.
Took all 4 out, cleaned them & tried again with no luck.
Checked plugs again, rear 2 totally dry, front 2 wet & quite dark.
Battery was fully charged too

Any advice? Pull carbs off for a clean etc?
Thanks
Vic

new plugs time too...or bake them good and proper.

put the wet ones in the back as they might not get drowned so easy..
