069a carb set up advice

Now set all the slides so they just start to lift, as small a gap as possible. Now adjust the idle screw until they just start to move, check they all look just the same. Fit and then adjust the idle screw when the engines running.

I like the sound of this method. Thank you I’ll pop the carbs off again and set them like this.

We all have different approaches to how we do these things. Mines no better or worse than anyone elses, I just find it works for me and I’ve never had the hanging throttle problem after using that method. If it works for you that’s great. Happy to help.
