Bill....off the subject......You mentioned a mixture screw being hard to turn on your BS34's........penetrating oil seems to gum them up after a while....shouldn't but it did on mine...I sprayed some carb cleaner in there and let it dry out good for a couple of days then 2-3 drops of 3 in 1........took a while but all is well now.......some 1/2" pvc tips with a slit up the side cover the towers from dirt..........

Thanks John

Great idea.



I am starting to build a second bike with the same carbys as my special so may need a set of needles in the near future.
