What are your thoughts on the compression tests, they are close to what mine are?
smoothoperator:
I see them as more of a reference really. I'll be doing them again hot once I've got the carbs back on. I suppose I was pleased to see that they were reasonably close to each other. I struggled a bit with No 2 to get the gauge on so I'll have another go at that one.

I have cleaned the carb float bowls and jets and plan to re install carbs tomorrow. The general condition wasn't too bad but the O rings were shot. The only oddity was that No 4 carb float valve has some slots in it. I've pictured it next to one of the other float valves for comparison.

I've never seen one with those slots in 🤔🤔🤔🤔
