    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.

#2 cylinder still cool

# 2 cylinder feels cool with a slight fuel odor. Had the carbs re-built, petcock replaced, new plugs, new intake boots. Number 2 still cool. Once the new petcock was installed it got hot quick, but now has gone back to original problem with usual fuel odor. However, spark plug is not as blackened up as before. Still seeing the weaker spark plug wire firing indicator as before vs #3. Any ideas?
 
When is the last time you adjusted the valves?
 
Is this on some type of motorcycle or something?

If so, have the carburetors been cleaned, synchronized or otherwise maintained at all?
 
Was the petcock new or used? Did wiredgeorge do the carb rebuild?
