#1 Cylinder not firing

Any ideas for troubleshooting? #1 cylinder is not getting hot. All spark plugs are brand new NGK's.

Did the problem start when you put in the new plugs? check the plug and see if it's faulty, sometimes they just dont work.

Aside from that, the #1 carb could be blocked.

Good idea...i did not try a different plug to see if another one worked. Fortunately it's the carb on the outside opposite the dial, so i can pop it off to make sure there is not trash in the fuel entry port.
