Quick recap:
Bike hadn't run in several years when I bought it
Changed plugs, oil and filter, fuel and fuel filter.
Starts and runs (badly) at 5k
Gets really choppy around 3.5k
Stalls below that
But, while holding it a 5k, airbox out, suddenly started getting a spray from the disconnected crankcase breather. Caught fire! Literally able to blow it out. Whew! So I assume the rough running is carb issues, but spurting out the breather? Any ideas what would cause that?
Thanks,
John
