Default Re: My first pointy

I dig a bit deeper and found whats in the pictures (click to enlarge) below. The rear tb has an open pipe on it. Not sure what both pipes are? The front one has the sealer cap thing on but looks perished. On my carbed ones remember leaving longer tubes on them so putting the balancer on was easy. I see no reason why I cant repeat this on the pointy? Also what ever that round canister thing is the pipe from it to the air box wasn't connected. Also one of the crank venting pipes wasn't on the airbox either. Sadly I had to go out, so have left it in pieces but will put it all back together tomorrow and hope with all the pipes in place, the stumble/misfire will have gone? Still not sure why its runing rich unless the Fi was dumping more fuel in to try and counter the air leaks? Anyway, another couple of little needed jobs discovered and fixed.
