Cheers beddhist,
Since posting last things have subsequently got worse, the bike has problems starting and when I finally manage to get her going it cuts out immediately when given any throttle.
I'm going to assess the way in which the vacuum hose has been plugged, possibly drain and flush the carb and check the inlet filter, and clean the spark plugs. I can't think of what else to do?
I've seen quite a few posts regarding the reserve level not being completely used after fitting the IMS tank, could this be due to the amount of pressure decreasing above the fuel line and so not delivering the fuel without the vacuum pump? Becasue of the close proximity of the new petcock with the carb the fuel hose between the two forms something resembling an upturned U-bend, again this could be a problem in the delivery of the fuel but can't really be changed since the carb inlet extends upwards above the horizontal petcock outlet?
Similarly when the engine cuts out or is switched off it does so with a clunk, should this be a concern? :confused1:
