my new engine has been hard to start. the other weekend I experienced a big bang [backfire I guessed]. today I noticed my intake manifold has a bit of a leak! my design assumption that it would always be in a slight vacuum state was obviously wrong. need to check the carb I guess to see if anything happened to it.
Kevin, is that just an aluminum shoebox, bolted to a plate and then sealed with blue-goo? Seems like it would be really simple construction, and the side blowing out would help to protect the carb in the case of a backfire.
