    I'm a newbie here and need help. I have an 82 xj650 only mod is air pods. My problem is my #4 cylinder is not firing. I checked the plug against the engine and it fires a nice blue spark. I checked compression and that is good. I rebuilt all my carbs and synched them. The plug will even have gas on it when I pull it, but when I take the bike out and get home the 4th exhaust pipe is cold,pull the spark plug looks brand new like it never fired but has fuel on it. Any suggestions I am at wits end.

    That's happened to mine....
    with a stuck float.
    And I think with a bad sync too.

    Have you looked at your own thread? This guy hasn't posted in almost two years.
