The most difficult part of servicing the carburetors is proper cleaning, most importantly the fuel circuits/passages, the pilot jets, main jets and emulsion tubes, which all those need to be removed.
Beyond common problems...... comprehensive carb cleaning is not for everyone, there is much to go wrong in short order. We've seen many members endlessly chase their tails, break stuff, assemble and adjust stuff wrong.
With some of the fleet becoming old, the vast majority require much more than "cleaning". The potential for leakage must be addressed, any less attention is irresponsible, and yes, this may even require thowing money and parts at them (gasp). Consumables...carb innards are not forever items.
And certainly there is MORE... much more....to it than simply addressing the pilot jets while they are out and on the bench.
Please...you're screwing around with FUEL...if not absolutely sure of what you're doing...send them to someone who is.
This isn't ment to scare, just to inform you.
