Misfires are usually associated with the spark rather that the carby.

Id be starting the cr, and pulling a lead at a time off its plug, seeing if one of them makes no difference to the way the engine runs.
If you pull a plug lead from a working plug, the engine will run ruff and vibrate, if its pulled from a plug that isnt working, no change in engine characteristics.

IF you find this is the prob, then you must work out if its the dizzy cap, lead or plug.

Start with your spark plug's & work your way out, keep your plug's in order & post a pic...

:helloo: I said that....... :wink:

Viewing the spark plug's will tell me lot's, hence asking for them to be in order ( as in 1,2,3,4 as they came out)......

If the carby just got done and nothing else, then id assume your miss is more of a lag,bog down or flatspot. Have more info?
