First try to start 2.0 carbs
Tries to start but white-blue smoke from cyl 3 through carb with POP. immediately shut it off before it started. Valve adjustment gone wrong on that cyl? Carb setting wrong (static setting via Dellorto book) ? Timing not moved since it was a running motor. What's the order of things to check? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

Are you missing any hardware that might be holding the intake valve open on #3? A lean miss fire will have you popping up the carb also. What carb set up?
