carb syncing

After you install the new cable, stick your fingers in the carbs and feel the slides. The bottom of both of the slides should be flush with the top of the carb opening at full throttle. Do a visual verification with a mirror also. To set your idle screws turn them the same amount after the screw makes contact with the slide so your sled will idle the desired RPM. Then tweek em with your fingers and your eyes so they start to open the exact same time and you still have the desired RPM.

Once you get your cables adjusted so the carbs open at the same time and ensure they are fully open, set your idle to the desired speed. When you are fully warmed up and have your idle speed set you can use a drill bit, of the correct size, to make sure your carb slides are set at equal opening. Just find a drill bit that fits between the bottom of the slide and the carb body.

Just one thing. The drill bit is about the size of a paperclip. Use it like a feeler gauge.
