Guys, I am brand new to this site and this is my first thread. Thanks for letting me in.
My 74 CB 750 is not running on one cylinder. The second cylinder in from the right (as you sit on the bike) is not firing. I know because the other three pipes are hot as heck and that one is just warm. I can turn up the idle and let it idle at about 2500 and take the spark plug right off and no change in the idle. I hold the loose plug wire to the block and get all kinds of spark so I know it's getting spark to the new plugs. I also unscrew the brass plug on the bottom of that bowl and gas comes out so I know it's getting gas to the carb.
Any ideas on what I should do or does anyone know anyone close to me (West Michigan) that knows how to fix these things.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
