You're welcome from my end, Joel. And no-one's going to get tired of questions here; we all learn from those questions & answers, so no apology necessary.

Good luck!

Stupid Flu.... Torn between staying in bed and pulling the carbs... Sleep is winning... I'll update when I feel better and get to the carbs...

Finally feeling better, have time, and I just pulled the carbs...

First thing I noticed is the throttle valve's (from both carbs) have some decent ware and groves. Ware down to the brass on one of the valves. Most of the ware and deep grooves are on the top end of the valves (the cable side not the carb side) But there are little dings on both edges...

Is this normal ware and tear or do these need to be replaced?

I think I might go get a camera so I can show you... But until then???
