009 Dizzy is garbage. As Dave Darling loves to say, "Give it the float test. Throw it in a lake and if it floats, it's good." The problem your having sounds like typical 009 problems. With the 009 it either idles great, but sucks a WOT, or runs great at WOT and has crap idle.
I also agree about synching the carbs. If you've got some extra cash, just toss out the cross bar linkage and get a CSP Bellcrank. Otherwise, it's takes a lot of trial and error and a lot of fidgeting to get the cross bar linkages to work right. |

Would rather not change parts till I find the right combo, kinda costly and I am CHEAP!! LOL On the face of it this prob sounds simple, miss fires.............. Changed plugs and wires, cleaned cap...... Bob |
