So I bought some after market carbs for my 72 CL350 from SUDCO. I had
some problems with the carbs fitting into the carb holders. The one on
the left actually fell out of the carb holder while riding. Seems to
me they should fit as well as the old carbs at least.

Also another odd problem. Only one side of the bike was running, the
left side. I disconnected the right spark plug cable, and as soon as I
moved it say 1 inch away from the plug, you could see the spark
jumping the gap, and all of a sudden that side of the engine starting
firing. But once you put the plug wire back on, it stops that cylander
from firing.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

What are they, VM-style slide valve carbs, or what? Sudco has adapters
in their catalog, you just need to know what the spigot diameter of
your new carbs is.

They won't fit if the spigot diameter is smaller. If you cannot find
the correct diameter adapters, wrap two or three layers of silicone
rubber tape around each spigot to take up the space.

Swap the plugs and see if the symptoms move to the other cylinder.

The indication is low voltage and slow voltage rise time. The bad
spark plug is leaking voltage across the insulator nose faster than
the collapsing electromagnetic field can built the voltage up.

Also, clean and reset the ignition points to get as much current as
possible into the coil.
