82 heritage special
hey everyone
so ive been working on getting my 82 heritage running. turns over, starter seems weak but have a spark. i took the tank off ane replaced the petcock because the p/o told me it wasnt working. the vaccum had been dissabled already, and due to my lack of knowledge i just capped the new (new to me as i baught it at a scrappers) petcock aswell. the only thing is it only works on prime. the "reserve" and the "on" positions are more like "OFF" positions. other than not having a reserve tank, is this problem? is it the reason the bike wont fire? scared of taking the carbs apart to clean but if thats the issue, which by reading some other threads im starting to think it may be..any imput and opinions are appreciated
thanks
