RH Cylinder Not Firing

Postby <781b.html?mode=viewprofile&u=147">sebring38 » Tue Nov 18, 2008 3:50 am

80 CX500C. The right cylinder does not fire. i have rebuilt carbs as well as good cleaning, Have spark at both plugs, although it is weak spark. Left had fires and the bike will idle on that cylinder, but will not run on both. I have pulled the plug and it is wet, indicating that it is getting gas, but not firing. I have swapped coils/plug wires with same result. New plugs, air filter, charged up battery. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks, Keith "sebring38"

A common cause of this is that the Carb floats require resetting correctly,
