flametrap cleaning= no start 200 1987


black smoke and hesitation led me to brickboard maintenance tips.


saw flametrap as possible cause.

cleaned flametrap, small hose from flametrap to manifold, unclogged brass nipple that small hose connects to on manifold.
Cleaned larger of two nipples on manifold as well( leads to air control valve?).
I used carburator cleaner on all of this.

turns over but wont idle. seems not to be getting fuel

while removing the flametrap i may have pulled the tube under it out a bit.

could the air control valve have gotten messed up? I moved it to get to the flametrap.

thank you
