97 triple piped triple. PTO cylinder has 140 psi compression (hot and cold),
has spark, won't fire though. Pipe fills with gas. Other cylinders
burn fine. Cleaned carbs and still no good.
Any all help as to where to look next are appreciated.

Thanks,
Jay

Did you check the needle and seat, could be leaking, also check the choke at each carb might need a good cleaning, sorry i did not call you back, i can get wiseco for you. Is it a 1997 700 triple std bore. Ball park is $245.00 plus shipping for a complete kit, 3 pistons, rings,wrist pins & top end gasket kit. If you do not need the gasket kit the pistons are only $227.00 for 3 pistons.

Thanks Joe, pulled the carbs apart again and it was a stuck choke cable.
I'll let you know on the pistons. That cylinders piston doesn't look too good
above the ring (scoring) but it holds good compression. With the winter we
are having, I think he is just going to run it. It's just a beater sled for around
here. He doesn't trail ride it.

Talk to you later and thanks again.
