Laverdaroo:
Good man Ted, you can rev yerself up to get those carbs off.
I put the first gallon of fuel in the 400 yesterday to finally get it out in the road for its maiden flight to find out the brand new Keihin fuel tap I found NOS, has a washer missing and leaked like a sieve
Another day fidfling then so I feel your pain mate……..go get some roach caught with a flask in yer bag and the cricket on the radio.
Your batteries will be recharged in no time

Phase one has arrived today in the post - Ken kindly sent me a full set of the correct needles, Emulsion Tubes plus the correct air screws - what a star and loss to this Forum he is during his unknown suspension period. Even criminals know their release date from imprisonment.
It is always refreshing when members save your build f.o.c. with not a hint of gain on their agenda. I do my best to reciprocate here with my relatively small stash of old parts.
I will be removing the carbs as soon as I am in the right frame of mind as my project is presently at a standstill.

I agree, Ken helped me immensely when I first got my 550
