I doubled checked the air intake last night and nothing is restricting the intake from what I can see. My photos below show you it is pretty much the same setup as Rob posted. Thanks for your efforts Rob.
I changed the gaskets around last night and still the same result but on my second inspection, I noticed the breather hole and wonder if this is something to do with restricting air flow and not allowing the engine to start. I could be completely wrong but I thought it would be worthwhile posting up.
The gasket that goes against the manifold position is self-explanatory. You can�t really get that wrong. Mine is positioned the same as Robs. The second gasket (after the spacer) has a hole in it. (See my photo below). My gasket I thought should be positioned the same as Robs however I noticed on the back of the carby a small hole which aligns with the hole in the gasket so I changed the position which looks to be more accurate. (Again I could be wrong through). After doing this change late last night I didn�t get a chance to see if the engine would start so I don�t know if it made a notable difference.
Unless I am mistaken from my photo�s below nothing unreasonable is restricting air flow��. I have mine set up exactly as per robs in the airbox department. I cleaned and dried the whole compartment before re-installing it. I cant see a way to install it incorrectly.
