figured it out. My mix screws were turned way out.
Now, after a warm up ride, I pull the clutch in and the bike revs to 3k and seems to idle there. If I hold the front brake tight and let the clutch out just until the bike starts to want to move and hold it there for a few, it'll idle between...
I'm with both those guys. I grew up in the garage with my dad building hot rods and drag cars as well as diagnosing and fixing problems. The easiest for me is to just get in there, keep everything organized, take pictures to compare to (especially if you're trying to pull a part and you discover...
The previous owner said that the number 3 carb was leaking fuel out of the float bowl. Ran and idled fine. Took the carbs off, noticed only one of the float bowl drain screws had an O-Ring on it, replaced all four, no more leak. Put the carbs back on and it fired right up without the airbox on...
Just like the title says. I picked up a fully stock Super Sport and everything is in perfect condition on the bike. I don't need the blinkers, I have hands.

This is the two piece silver part above the battery but under the seat. It looks toasted but I can't tell if that's just how they look or what.
It's from a 1980 CB750f Super Sport
Any help is appreciated.
Found the culprit. It wasn't just carb 3 that was leaking, carbs 4,3, and 1 where leaking as well. After about an hour trying different ways to get the leak to stop, I pulled out the float bowl drain screws and only 1 had an o-Rimg
Yes, a bench sync might do the trick with the high idol. If not, check for vacuum leaks. Even a small rip in your intake boot would do it.
Last but not least, use a "." Every now and then. Makes it easier to read.

i turn the Petcock to on, fire it up, and it dumps fuel out of the vent tube. A decent size puddle after 10 seconds of running. Anyone have any ideas that could point me in the right direction would be very appreciated. I have the carbs off and ready...
