ransomes256ParticipantI am very surprised there are no markings on the edge of the crown wheels as even the spares have them. They should look like this but if you still have a problem please email me njarrett@btinternet.com

ransomes256ParticipantI have new old stock 398/5 carburettors but no spares. Chances of getting a 356/1 is slim.

ransomes256ParticipantI think you will find the carburettor may be a 398/5 which has an oblong fuel bowl rather than round. This was a very late fit part and mainly by water boards etc. I do not know much about these but have never seen an issue with one.

ransomes256ParticipantBruce,
Is this the 356/1 carburettor? It may be that the internal cross drillings are becoming blocked and may need an ultrasonic clean to clear them. It is not easy as the cross drillings are end blocked after manufacture. Additionally have you checked the jets and emulsion tube which sometimes gets a split or the solder end plug is missing.
Potentially it may also be related to a weak spark so may be magneto related.
email me if you need parts or more help njarrett@btinternet.com
