Bill, I had a dumb moment there, as I had forgotten about the carburetor being cast into the block. Tubs pictures and descriptions [well done Tubs] explain what my idea was about testing the carburetor. You should be able to trace the fuel flow through the carburetor, from the float bowl until it exits into the intake of the powerhead.I must confess I have never done this on a Mate, but have done it on the Scout,Ranger, Sea King Midget, etc.
Can you here the poppet working as you crank the motor over? I would think that you should… I know on the other motors that I mentioned, you can easily hear it working.
