Exup 1000

Best use for facebook is perving at holiday photos of various females you know - there's pretty much always a bikini photo or two....... apparently

Had a similar problem with the old Thunderace, which resulted in every single toy being thrown out my pram many many times. Multiple carb strip downs and cleanings before the culprit was eventually found... weak choke springs. Had many of the same problems you had, needed the choke to start, choke ...
