    Have Spark, Gas and compression but #2 is not firing?

    Is it okay to hook the carbs back up without the air box just as a test? Just wasn't sure with all the vacuum stuff going on between the carb and intake if we should start it without the air box. God I hate that airbox lol. Wish the pods worked better with the cv carbs.

    We switched the old plugs around as well as the new along with the cables. It definitely is getting gas. It must be the carb. We have had them off already but we didn't think to check for oversized jets
