    Throttle cable stuck

    Shotgun killed my Max

    The dead spot went away too. I ran it up to 7500 twice once it reached full operating temp. So far so good. It has 36 K on the clock so I know a complete tear down of the carbs would no doubt do much good but I think I'll do that over the winter. I am definitely getting a fuel injected mount...

I pulled the fuel feed hose from the carb T and the fuel pump is...

    Shotgun killed my Max

    Performed the shotgun yesterday and followed the instructions to the letter. After I buttoned it up, no start. It is not even trying to fire. I have spark and I have fuel. What gives? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
