right, carbs overhauled, 2 missing wires replaced to coil means we have sparks, but still wouldn't fire up. suppose I was been a bit optimistic really. anyway, ran a compression test, none at all on 3 + 4, 50whatevers on 1 + 2. poured oil down plug holes and ran test again, same result, so not bottom-end. possible head-gasket? took cam cover off and discovered problem 3 + 4 exhaust valves stuck open! possible 1+ 2 not sealing? anyway that's all until I have time to remove the head and investigate further! thanks for reading need to spend bit of time on the beast to ready it for xmas stages
