Right Chaps, an update!
Finally I have had time to service my remaining 3 carbs, fit new o rings and fuel valves, undertake a comprehensive flushing of each carb and a final blast through with the air line, oh and balancing the carbs..............it runs great!!
It's only taken about 8 weeks, carbs off and back on about 8 times, new plugs and a new coil but finally I got there.
Also popped in a new fuel filter and bought a service kit to clean and oil the K&N air filter.
I don't know how much it would have cost in the bike shop but at £30 an hour + vat, i reckon I have saved a few quid and learnt quite a lot.
Thanks to each and every one of you who took the time to post with some helpful advice.
