Fuel Trouble

Hello I have a 2006 Kesea Skyhawk 250 t has a twin carb and cyl. I have new carbs wires coils spark plugs and cdi . Still would not start so I got a cross over pipe to make it a single carb. It will start but only with starting fluid. Just don't know with new carbs. Anyone know what could be wrong?

Thanks

Scott

All else aside, the slow jets sound like they are too small for the application.
