mattb31daytona Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Have on the road and in use 64 Army contract TRW 500 in my collection and wonder if others can comment as to whether their machines flood (solex Carb) if using either of the start settings unless in the dead of winter. Found mine spills fuel out from the bottom of the air filter if she fails to start on the first kick but once started you can leave fuel tap open all day long with no problem so clearly the float valve is shutting down correctly. So wondering just how cold does it need to be before resorting to the easy start settings - yesterday tried starting her after a fortnight without any use of easy start setting just a little throttle started first kick. Also is there a source of gaskets available anywhere - Burton bike rebuild kit doesn't appear to have gaskets and I have spare jets in a couple of part carbs?
