I think the slides are in the wrong bodies

I will find out tomorrow when I take the carbs off the bike and I will have 4 boxes set aside for each individual carb should I deem it necessary to swap those slides.

I would be surprised if the sliders are wrongly fitted as this would also cause problems on the top levered plungers unless they have been removed & put on back to front as well.
It will be interesting to see what you find.

I will photo-document it and if it proves to be 'an out of body experience' I will post the photos.If it is not the case, I may well get the idle and fast idle set knowing that it is me that needed expierience.

You do not need to take the carbs off to check - a mirror or phone will do the trick. You will see the curved part of the sliders - or not as the case maybe.

Well, they are back to front so looks like I willl be learning a new task today, removing and replacing slides.
