New PMA...Starts then dies

[Allamericantc]

Hey Guys

Newb here. Just put the PMA in my 75. Fired right up and then died 3-4 seconds later. Hasn't fired since without ether. Any ideas?? Thanks

Do you have a Capacitor hooked up?

No. Battery

I would start by pulling the battery and fully charging it. While it's charging go over the wiring for the PMA as well as the ignition.
If you need starting fluid to get it to fire then your carbs need cleaning.

Thanks. I'll clean them out and see how it goes. Thanks!

Cleaned the carbs out. FULL of gas and all gummed up! I cleaned them out real well. She fired right up. Thanks for the suggestion!
