Installed a carb refurb set last weekend. Amazing! No more sluggishness with low revs, and consumption is down from 9L per 100 km to 5.5L per 100km.(dunno what that is in funny talk,mpg, etc, :lol:)  Also adjusted fuel level in the carbs...I'm a happy boy

Hope you'll get the same results! Huge improvement. I allways thought you had to have a degree in carbology to tackle this, but with Haynes manual a piece of cake....

Good luck!
