My Cyclone sometimes jumps out of 5th , have adjusted cables , refitted gearbox, shimmed etc , does it perhaps need a slither ground off the sliding dog?

Re: Bogging Down , Won't Pull Away.
Haha , yeah the cables are in ok. Leak test on the carb manifold, as suggested, will be the next thing to try. Missed Scarborough so take my time and get it right.
