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) |

If you didn't move the dizzy that's not the issue. Wires on in the wrong sequence, valve adjustment, burnt valve, sticking valve, valve seat failing.
