Sos is the affectionately named spawn of Satan. Does your fuel line run direct from your peacock to the fuel nipple in between carbs 1 and 2 or does it run into a mess of tubes mount on the carb rail (sos).
Basics of any 4 stroke engine
Suck, squeeze, bang, blow
Suck - are you getting gas?
Loosen the 4 screws on the bottom of the carbs. Fuel should run out of each. That means there is fuel in bowl. Tighten them up and crank the engine a little bit, full choke.
Now pull the plugs. Are they wet with gas?
If they are wet then check spark, followed by compression.

simply put she doesn't start regardless - choke in no sputter just a dimming of the lights choke out sputtering no starting. The pods are off! I forgot to mention that, the air box is back on. I do however have plenty of time now, still not so much $ but at the time these problems started I was back at school and didn't have the time. I am not certain as to what the "sos" is... I am at the moment just cleaning the tank and petcock before big ideas start coming this way. Thanks again!
