Another Indy Breathes
Fired up the Indy this afternoon for the first time, Usual carbs overflowing but sorted in a few mins. Then instant start. A bit reluctant to rev but
a bit of fettling will sort that.
Swimbo came home then and winged about the smell, "Little darlings arnt they"

What was your issue? The keeps happening to me...I fix the problem, then it returns.
Well done on the start. Feels great.

Chris,
The carbs have not been used for a while and when that is the case the float needles dont want to seat very well and no matter how carefull
you are cleaning them out there is always a bit of poo somewhere. After a bit of fuel has washed over them they "usually" settle down, If
you have a frequent problem then maybe the needles and seats are worn or you are getting dirt in them, have you got a decent filter in the line?
