Starting problems on rebuilt engine

[Barten]

My rebuilt engine has finally started but only runs on 4 cylinders. Cylinder 4 & 6 on the rh bank and cylinder 1 & 7 on the lh bank doesn't seem to fire. ( the headers are cold on those cylinders). I wonder if it could be caused by fuel feed? Does one carb feed those 4 I wonder? Any ideas will be highly appreciated!

That's a problem with the LH carb.

Thanks Harvey! I found the problem today, very simple: too little petrol in the tank. To rectify it I just pulled out the petrol reserve lever. Then it started and sounded sweet! I will post a clip on here later. First time this engine has run in 25 years.
