Hi
Carbs are back after a full rebuild, New Floats as old ones were solder repaired and one was leaking, 2 of the carbs kept flooding, the thermo choke occasionally flooded out of top, this was caused by the bolt holding top on was broken and replaced with a stud at an angle causing top not to seat properly. Bent needle and ovaled seating where needle had worn it down. One of the pistons was scored.
All new spindles with new teflon bushings, new jets, needles, new brass bolts etc etc. Had them done with standard needles DW's. Fantastic job all polished etc.
Great turnaround by Glen of G W Carbs
http://www.gwcarbs.com/ only took 2 weeks from leaving me. Great cost as well £500.
While I was waiting and doing all my other bits and bobs see head gasket fiasco on this forum. I decided to clean up manifolds and balance/choke pipe.
Heres some pics of before and after.

Now will be able to run engine up and re torque head etc.
So will be ready for New Years day parade as long as my pins come out of foot on New Years Eve (consultant says all should be fine)
Cheers Gary
