Can't get ironhead started
Hey guys. I can't get my bike started after a couple weeks of riding. Its a 66 xlch rebuilt engine. We just adjusted the pushrods. We're thinking maybe a clogged jet? What you think and how doin go about it?

Well, if you have spark, and I'm sure you'd know by kicking it, that you have compression, then you just need to add some fuel and you should have fire. I would drop a tablespoon into each of the cyls through the sparkplug holes or inject some into the throat of the carb and give her a few kicks to see what happens.
