scottbit Junior Member S Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 11 dexter,mi	Doc: I have fuel at the carb. Have spark at the points. I need to check fuel in the carb and at the sparkplug, right? To check fuel in the carb, would I just press accelerator rod and see if gas is squirting in from the float bowl? What's the best way to check for spark at the plug?
