Greetings ,
Well there is fantastic news, she is alive and kicking !!!. Managed to get her running yesterday. Basically did a Mc Giver job with a surrogate distributor and a set of coils, via two batteries and a set of short custom jumper cables that we made. Only the headers on as that's all I have for exhausts, loud but brilliant... She feels very strong at the throttle , good response. The flame is now lit so we must press on. The LH cylinder was bogging down at anything below main jet , so I removed the carb and went through it. I have attached a picture , on the right hand side of the petrol feed line there is an opening that goes all the way through to the inside of the carb body adjacent to the slide base. This is unmetered air being drawn in and hence the bog more deluxe issue. Any input form those a lot more versed than I am on Dellortos is very welcome and much appreciated.
I am still in looking for numerous additional parts, so if there is anyone out there with a donor bike or plenty of spares please contact me.
As phase one is complete, I will be having an adult beverage !!!!!
