            Ifyoure missing the washer, that could very well be your main problem, please give it a shot!

            When youre missing the washer, the carb will suck fuel around the mainjet aswell, making it very very rich.

                      I'm very glad you got this sorted without the help of a garage. It would have been wasted money mate! 👍

                          Mine were the same when i bought it. I chased it for weeks, leening out the whole carb before i looked at a parts fiche.
                          I knew right away what was wrong when i saw the missing washer.

                          I think its just easy to misplace that one.

                                          @oldman mines clean still can't be many that haven't been stolen and recovered like the figures on that would be interesting
