DONT use the heater on your deuce without cranking the engine at the same time.What happens is that when you activate the cold start assist switch fuel is sprayed into the manifold onto a spark plug.You can guess what the end result is.So use it as per the directions and if the system is working...
I've got probably the same set up on my deuce and it works well. You should first check to see if you have fuel at the nozzel,if so then check to see if you spark at the spark plug.You can do this by removeing it and then grounding it against the manifold while someone else activates the...
