An easy one for someone but has buggered me?

Q. Baja is only running on two left hand side cylinders. Checked distributor and leads. All seems to be ok. What do I go to next?

Twin carbs? One side blocked?

Single carb PICT 32 on a TP 1600 - Right hand side is as cold as a Eskimo's toe even after 2 mins running.

Plugs? Change left and right leads, then plugs to check maybe.

Check for airleaks on the side that don't go, rubber coupling and manifold to head.

when i put the 1776 into my baja i had exactly the same problem. would run on #3 and 4 but number 1 and 2 would stay cold.

then it started to leak fuel from the rocker cover and head which is when i decided to drop it back out.


i spent hours and hours checking and double checking everything to no avail.
