Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Running on three cylinders.
Nice score Tommy. I'm with these guys on the jets Nick. You could have very easily disturbed some small debris while removing and cleaning petcock. If you don't know how small the openings in the jets are, sounds like you'll soon find out.

I just scored a free almost new Honda pressure washer for this very reason owner had used it 3 times and could not get it to start. I removed the jet. It was completely clogged. Used a piece of copper wire, cleaned it out, and runs like new. All because of ethanol gas!!

And being #4 carb, try just removing the carb bowl, in place. You can do it without removing the carbs with a right angle Phillip’s screw driver or real short ratcheting phillips. With carb bowl off it’s easy to remove the jets, clean and put them back. Just put towel under carb to not lose anything. A telescopic mirror is handy as well.
