Decided to try working on my '96 Triumph motorcycle again to try to get it running. I now have fuel getting to all three carbs but still have trouble getting it to run. With a shot of ether it will light off and run for a couple seconds, then die. After a couple times it won't light off at all anymore. I suspect that the POS ignition system in it isn't up to the task after a couple attempts. Regardless, I'd like to keep the dust out of the intake while I'm doing all this (the effing air filter system requires you to take the carbs out, stick the filter in to the frame area, and then wiggle the effing carbs back in. Sorry, ain't gonna keep doing that until the damn engine runs consistently). So I'm looking for some material I can stick over the carb inlets and hold it with rubber bands or hose clamps. Any recommendations? Thanks.
