Sound like it's running quite rich. Is your choke stuck on? I doubt that it were your condensor, as it wouldn't start at all and your plugs would be wet, not black.

What type of carbie(s) have you got?

I have had condenser's fail before and they would still idle but run like crap under load. Does sound like it is rich though.
Cheers Pete


Yes Pete, that can happen, but the plugs won't be black. It appears to be a fuel problem rather than ignition. Cheers

Do you have the pulsar dizzy still?
If so, I don't think you have a condensor. You need to check for spark at the lead. Maybe the ignitor module in the dizzy might have failed.

It would also pay to check all the connections on the coil, dizzy etc for any loose or disconnected wires.

A blown module would make no spark and the plugs would be wet

Have you checked your fuel system? is it all working well and the filter clean? Is the fuel bowl full of fuel?

Check on both carbies that the choke is OFF. Underneath each carbie, roughly in the middle, you'll see a round tube hanging straight down with a linkage on it to your choke linkage and cable. Make sute that these are pushed up as high as they will go (choke off).

Also, has any fuel been coming out of the fuel bowl vents? Could be a jamed 'needle & seat' in one of the fuel bowls.

I think Graeme's post is meant to be a gentle prompt to kemal that a polite 'thank you for your help in fixing my problem' wouldn't go astray.
