i sent the guy who cleaned the carbs out the first time an email to check on the circuit passages.

as for the intake, i dont mean the clamp is loose. it just isnt as tight as any of the clamps on the carb to engine boots. when i checked for vacuum leaks before i and noticed the slight leak around the airbox boot, i tested the issue by completely removing both boots (i ran it for a very short amount of time because it was running on unfiltered air) and the same problem existed.

and as for the valves, i dont know when they were last adjusted. do you think checking them will help?
