Okay here we go .... I have an 85 , totally rebuilt motor . Problem I am having is #2 cylinder is not firing most of the time , pipe is warm to touch on idle , but if I rev up it will fire and pop . Runs like crap .
Yesterday I noticed the oil level was up and realized there was gas in the oil !!!! Pulled the plug and it was soaking wet . Switched plugs with # 3 cylinder and problem did not move with the plug swap ,so I tested resistance of the coil and its good . Checked for spark on the plug and got a nice blue spark .
Drained the carb bowl and no crap came out with the fuel , restarted and it was firing at idle .
Took it for a ride ( after an oil change ) , ran great , lots of power and within 5 minutes started hesiating and popping and real sluggish . Pulled plug again and it was soaking wet ??????:bang head:
other 3 plugs have a nice light brown color ( including the plug in the #3 cyl. now )
Before I tear into the bike i would like a few expert opinions
Thanks
