I have 81 xs400, first bike build, having problems getting it started. I have cleaned the carbs about three times now, beginning to feel like a pro at doing that now. I have checked the spark plugs both are firing. The longest I have gotten it to run is about 20 seconds, and when I do get it started I can get maybe 2-3 good tugs on the throttle before it will cut out. Engine has compression, is there any safety relays or anything that would cause this? I know im probably being pretty vague but any suggestions id appreciate
