Re: 1977 Cyclone Help

Alright so I'm working on it now. I have some gas in the tank from last time and it seems as though it went right into the motor. Pulled plugs and gas was shooting out like crazy (from header too). Pulled until no more came out. Put some gas in tank, pulled. Gas seems to be leaking from the fuel pum...

Re: 1977 Cyclone Help

Nathan, check pulse line on fuel pump for fuel leaking through. You can also leave the pulse line off while you pull the engine over to help blow fuel out of crank case.

Okay so I went and tried again today. I found out the air/fuel screw was about three turns wrong so I fixed that, pulled plugs and pulled it to get any excess gas out.

Re: 1977 Cyclone Help

I'm from State College (Central PA area). And okay thanks for the advice. I have the carburetor from the 78 with me and just went and cleaned it all up and adjusted it as that link says. I'll put that one on tomorrow and then re-tare apart the 77 carburetor and let you know how it goes.

Thanks
