I'm willing to try anything lads, the bowls are really bad I've stripped a few carbs over the years (motorcycle tech at a Honda/Suzuki dealer for 10years) now working at an a tv service centre. But these ones have stuck the float bowl pins  to the float hinge, the needles are stuck in the guides, I told the owner easiest way would be find a better set but as I said I'll try it. Just not my money I'm spending, so that's the issue.

Chris400F:
You could always drop the guy on eBay an email, with a photo or two, to see what he thinks.
Reading the listing again I see I got it wrong - price doesn't include parts, only fitting of supplied repair kit,
but these are not too expensive from Cruzinimage.

JamesH:
If you can, post up some pics on here so we can advise you properly.

Spitfire:
I left my F1 in the garage for 10 years while I was working overseas, when I came back I wondered why I could not operate the throttle, when I took them off it soon became clear what the problem was, the needles were stuck in the gum, not nice stuff but they cleaned up well.

Try having them sonic cleaned I do quite a few for people and they come up real well
