Progress - She runs at last! (75 CB400F)

I believe we are taking about the same screw, yeah the casting is to far away from the tip of the idle screw.
I had the carbs completely in pieces, only the chokes were left on. Idle screws all completely removed, so yes it does look like I may have assembly incorrectly. Bugger. I'm not sure what could even be wrong!

If the tickover screw when screwed all the way in still has a gap to the lever it adjustes you definately have the slides not right

Sorry couldn't help myself. :) :) :) :)
I'll write out "I shouldn't snigger in class" 50 times as a punishment.

So, 5 minutes after posting my 10PM message last night I took a long swig from the beer bottle sat on my workbench. It was a big mouthful.
Sadly however, it turned out that the cool, refreshing (and undrunk!) Hop House 13 was in fact at the other end of the bench. The bottle I had taken a swig from contained the petrol I had drained from the carb bowls.
Yuck. Luckily I don't 'think' I actually swallowed any, but I've gone through many litres of water to dilute and flush it through. I can still taste petrol now.
At that point, my interest in continuing to work in the cold diminished rapidly. So the only picture I have is this one:

The lever does touch the idle screw when fully screwed in, but only just. This is with the slides all bottomed out (ie the individual slide adjusters all screwed in as far as they will go), there's about 6mm gap.
