    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have a 81 450gl. it was running great then one day the right bank stopped firing plug is not even getting wet. bowl is getting plenty of fuel. I swapped rubber diaphragms from side to side to no avail. I can prime the right carb with brake clean and cylinder starts firing so I know it is in the carb. These carbs look pretty basic but i a missing something. Please help.
 
they are clean and clear of obstruction. wear can i buy a rebuild kit
 
Have you verified spark on that cylinder? If no spark, try swapping the coils - see other posts for why.
 
This may or may not help, but my 82 GS300L had sit for 12 years. Cleaned carbs put in new plugs and used B12 carb gunk remover in the gas (high test always) for a couple of weeks. I stopped using the B12 and after a couple of tanks the right side started smoking and missing. I put in some B12 and it started running fine again. 2 caps to a tank full.

Good Luck
David
