[QUOTE="thill, post: 502737, member: 4972"] Aaaahhh, finally! Someone who has run this exact engine. I appreciate you sharing your observations about it. Something about this motor that bugs me a bit is the fact that this motor has three cylinders, but only two carbs. Not one or three, but two. That's just weird. Split intake manifold, I suppose? Top carb: 2/3 top cylinder, 1/3 middle cylinder? Bottom carb: 1/3 middle cylinder, 2/3 bottom cylinder? That would give all three carbs 2/3 of a carb. No reason it can't work just fine, but it's still odd. Thank you for chiming in. [/QUOTE]
