Cheers for reply Just to get them something like put 4 metal rods in the sliders I use welding rods then open them up slowly while at a right angle to the carbs watch the rods drop down they should all move up n down at the same time and all be the same level you can get them quite close doing that 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
