Ok I know the PO had the carbs apart to change jets, and I have already noticed in another post that there is a way to put them back together wrong and block the vent for the diagram. My aftermarket pipes are of the dbl wall type so there is minimal bluing, but the right hand cylinder has more than the left. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Thanks Bob

the balance could be off and also the air jets could be off...common practice is to turn them both out the same ammount but that may not be correct in application...they are different carbs and even though they should be close you still might be a tad lean in one...my left side runs leaner than my right side does
check your plugs and go from there
PS this may get moved to Misc or Performance mods

I am way behind on my CVC technology, but I see the info in the links provided, study study study. Thanks
