. Backfire through carburetor

Recommended Posts

 Well, this is interesting. I am trying to get either one or both the C 160s ready for snow duty. The eight speed needs a fuel pump  so I started to test the hard/ no start Auto that did not run last year. She just hit the wall on the compression stroke due to weak batteries headed for the scrap pile. I hooked up a known strong battery and ran the engine with some loose juice sprayed in and the spark plug out. By the way Y did shoot some carb spray in as starting fluid 

   Then I hooked up the plug and a strong unburned fuel vapor came out of the carb .

    Where would you guys go from here? I still have plenty of options but C160 machines need to be kept running 

    Thanks in advance my friends

How is the points gap?  It may be too far advanced (narrow gap?) 

 

Valves need adjusting?
