Default New problem

Got the carbs synced and fix the problem with fuel drippingin the barrel after the motor was shut off. Problem was that the idle jets wern't seated and fuel was going around them. Also noticed on several barrels that the idle mixture screw doesn't shut down the motor when screwed in. I was suggested that on those mixture screws that the spring be taken off to see if they could now shut tje fuel supply off. Going to try that tomorrow...
Last, one barrel isn't working on the idle circuit.... Pulled te
He carb apart and the passage where the fuel goes from the well to the idle jet is clogged. I ran out of gas last week....going to fix that tomorrow and hopefully it runs much better!
