aaaargh no start problem

[Alan Pritchard]

Hey, just an upadate
I took a look at the 90 at the weekend
Started by removing the inlet igloo and breather hoses...
For some reason I grabbed the airflow plate and realised it was
solid!!!!!
So I removed the metering head from the airbox and the plate freed
itself, reseated the assembly, checked again and put all the hoses back
And sure enough, 1/2 crank later she fired
Not bad for standing for 8 months with a new head on her.... top end is
very noisy though, needs a good flush

Best Regards

Thanks guys, this seems to be a good place to start.
Ill remove the intake boot and check all the hoses, theres a dubious one
buried in the inlet manifold that I am a little suspicious off, ill kick
myself if its vacuum related :(
