I never win. :-(

AMC, thanks. Big hint on carb number 2! And yes, I knew after sending the big bucket idea was death. ��

AMC, thanks. I know that hole is minute ... I can't get any standard carb tools/cleaning rods down it .. but I can see the hole in each ... I think you are telling me that irrespective of being able to see through the jet and the diffuser holes the internals may still be blocked ... in looking...

So I disassembled carbs on 82 CB750 that idled only on choke and killed with throttle. I'm sure I did not do the process justice. They looked pretty clean. Removed all the jets ... they all looked clean. Stuffed the wire brushed through each including the pilot jets, at least the various...
