every time it starts it will run for 1 minute and 24 seconds unless i spray fuel down the carby. proves very difficult to drive it down the road..

thanks for ya answer i will look for a second hand carby. some times it sounds like it has a gut full of fuel and struggles to turn over sort of sounds like the timing is out. wait 10 minutes and she starts straight up for a minute
