[QUOTE="Omega Man, post: 208177, member: 66"] Weather and light aren't an issue anymore. [img]https://www.classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=14&image_id=33343[/img] Before starting to test the plug wires I needed to make sure she started. Cranking fine but choke not enough I had to WOT a bit. It started but, while I was twisting the throttle I saw gas "bubbling" here. I KNOW I did but because I smelled insulation I shut her down fast. I needed to see it again to be 100% sure but it wouldn't do it w/o WOT and just didn't want to put her through that anymore. [img]https://www.classicgoldwings.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=14&image_id=33345[/img] The thing I'm pointing to looks just like the gas shut off valve, round screws on the corners of a sandwiched gasket of some kind. The larger hoses are from the gas filter to the carb. This pic also shows the clean "running?" side and the dirty "non-running" side. The smell of insulation came from the same suspect coil/hydro repair area. I wanted to post this before proceeding to the plug firing testing.
