RussN Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 Note on poorly running Ural engines: Both my son and I experienced Ural engine running issues. They acted like the low speed carb jets were (partially?) clogged. We each put half a can of SeaFoam (a fuel additive/solvent for engines) in each of our three Urals, and then ran them hard. https://www.amazon.com/Foam-Motor-Treatment-Part-B1SF16/dp/B01FSZ1AIC/ref=sr_1_8?crid=3SWU37VL6O6NH&keywords=seafoam+fuel+additive&qid=1663254448&sprefix=Seafoam%2Caps%2C324&sr=8-8 Within 20 miles the jets cleared and the engines are again running at full power with smooth throttle response. I can recommend SeaFoam as a useful solution to the carburetor cleaning problems we experienced. RussN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooden Nickel Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Do the easy stuff first. Seafoam is good, Lay both spark plugs on the head and spin the starter and check for good blue spark. If you don't have a compression gauge, you can use a thumb over the spark plug hole or holding a tapered stick that plugs the hole without going far down in the hole. DO NOT PUT YOU FINGER IN THE HOLE AND THEN SPIN THE STARTER. And as always have the throttles wide open when doing a compression test. The thumbs or a stick are a rough guide but if the is a great difference between the two sides, you can tell. Take the bottom plugs out of the carburetors and turn the petcock to prime. I think the correct figure is at least 100 ml per minute, but at least you can compare the two sides. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
