I got my fresh rebuild project running a few weeks ago. After resolving a no left cylinder spark issue the first day, the 277pamco/capacitor engine was running strong, smooth, and surprisingly responsive. I took it for some laps around the neighborhood over the next few days...everything still running strong and smooth. The last lap I made, however, the bike started to run very rough right out of first gear and I sputtered my way down the street back home. When I pulled into the driveway and throttled ever so slightly and got a strong backfire out of the left cylinder exhaust pipe.
The left side is not firing, again. The first time was a no spark issue. Now, I'm getting spark. This morning I pulled the carbs for a driveway cleaning, pulled the pilot, mains, air jets and sprayed all passages I could with carb cleaner. Still, no fire on the left cylinder.
I've read the carb guide countless times but still feel pretty lost and don't know where to look next.
The plugs were pretty fouled after only a few miles of riding. it'll kick over and idle on the right cylinder at half choke but dies quickly with any small blip of throttle.
'83 277 rephase, green monster coils, pma, capacitor, kick only, bs34. 45/140 jets. uni pods. pandemonium ya-mama straight pipes.
thanks for any input,
