OK guys, if I can ask some advice again. I've been having another go and I'm stumped again. Made a vid to show my problems:

To re-iterate the video: I have the carbs balanced about as well as I can hope/get with the vaccuum gauges I have. The idle screw is now basically redundant. The only way I can change the idle speed is by turning the centre carb balancing screw, just a quarter of a turn changes about 1000 revs and doesn't affect the balance at all. Am I doing something wrong here? Shall I just put it back together and forget about it?

Thanks for any help
