heh, yeah, 1 cylinder is "normal" now

There's some sort of compressor at the lock up, and I've got an air-duster can.

Ok, where's that?
Is it doable with the airbox on?

No take airbox off. It's not hard and allows easy access

ehh....

Got the cleaner, took airbox off, started the thing...

As I sprayed the cleaner at the 1st carb (jets), revs were going up and the exhaust poped (and gave out a lot of smoke).
Tried spraying at the 2nd carb and it "choked" every time.

What wonders me is why is the front downpipe getting warm?

Think I'll book it to a garage somewhere, this looks like it's over my skills

If it's getting warm it must be firing, how are you sure rear is firing?
