When you've got a Thunderace, you don't need a car.

What do you mean when it snows the omega wont go anywhere

Try local old fashion bike garage to set up initially.  Balancing carbs can be a pita.  I still use my mechanic to do the carbs when one drops out.

Possible worth some fuel additive to clear the jets first though.

gummed up carbs.....take a lot of stripping down and cleaning to get rid of the goo created by the petrol when its stood for some time.

There not hard to balance.......you can do it very accurately by ear (listening to the vnturi on each in turn to match the note)

You may be able to, what about us mere mortals

On the old twin carb Acclaim I used to have (great engine, rubbish handling), I made up simply U tube gadget that I had seen somewhere...  ...guess similar could be done with quad carb?

Well it must have been dirt in the carb or the fact that they were not sitting properly, as it run fine after.. but I have just been a mates and balanced the carbs and "She" runs alot better now

Did wonder if it would be a trip over to yours though Mate
