There isnt any such thing as a VT 500F interceptor, but there is a VF500F. they're not common, but they are also not really valuable because...
also brake fluid flush. the stuff absrbs water, promoting rust/corrosion in the systems. thats no bueno. and a good carb synch. beware...
its entirely possible to be a defective plug, plugged pilot jet, blown headgasket, or any number of other possibles.
At this stage, unless theres a deep sentimental link with this bike, its time to part her out and throw in the towel. that motor is probably toast.
