Cold starting

[nimbus]

Good day all,

Having a problem cold starting (RD350LC) when she is hot no problem, but starting from cold is a bitch.

I read some where that all the holes in the carb bowl must be clean so stripped them one at a time and found the one carb bowl to be blanked off while the other is not.Is this correct or do i have the wrong bowl.

Attached is the blanked off bowl.

Thanks Mark

the one that isn't blanked off is the one that needs to go on the choke carb, the one that is blanked off goes on the right hand (clutch side) carb

Make sure the one with the hole is clear/clean, squirt some wd40 or the likes through the jet to make sure

Thanks, so I had them fitted the wrong way. Will let you know how she starts when they are changed over.

Cheers mark

Yep as Mutts says, if you've got the bowls on the wrong carbs, then you will have NO choke

She now start first time and my new kick starter will last a few years longer. What a great forum.

Cheers
